The Hot Sardines: Valentine's Day

Celebrate Valentine’s Day with some foot-stomping hot jazz and salty stride piano from the era of Louis Armstrong, Django Reinhardt, and Fats Waller.

“One of the best jazz bands in New York” (Forbes), The Hot Sardines is a group of irreverent, effortlessly swinging, early-jazz specialists, including a tap dancing soloist. Their unique repertoire features sultry standards from the ’20s, ’30s, and ’40s, rich New Orleans sounds, a dash of ’40s Paris flavour, and vibrant musical surprises. With their contagious brand of joy, grit, glamour, and passion, they invoke the sounds of nearly a century ago, yet stay right in step with the current age.

After the concert, enjoy a beverage and stay late to dance to a swing band at the Postlude Performance.
