Nutbush (dance)

The Nutbush is a popular dance in Australia. It is categorised as a line dance, and is performed to Tina Turner's song "Nutbush City Limits".
In the 1950s, the dance was well known as "The Madison".[1] Inspired by Tina Turner's song, a variation of the dance emerged again as "The Nutbush" in the 1970s disco era. A comparison of the step sheets, however, does not support the conclusion the dances are the same. The Nutbush particularly took off in Australia during the 1980s, and is usually performed in schools, social gatherings and community events.
