I'm in the same boat right now, Seth!
BIDA's Open Band Tune List is a really helpful resource:
https://www.bidadance.org/open-band-tune-list
But I've been having a hard time communicating about dynamics with them
other than pulling up videos of experienced bands to demonstrate how much
dance musicians break tunes down, improvise, and play. The energy needed to
carry across a 7-minute set is harder to describe!! Following along in case
others have ideas.

Hello hive mind
I have an upcoming ONS gig with a group of people who are all professional
musicians, but have never played together nor played for a dance. What
resources are out there to help give these musicians an understanding of
what is coming for them? Any web videos or PDFs of hints so they know what
to expect? They are asking for sheet music and videos, which will help but
I know there is much more to it than that.
