Additional Information

The Hot Sardines have a unique musical recipe: hot jazz and sultry standards from the ‘20s, ‘30s, and ‘40s, sprinkled with rich New Orleans sounds, a dash of ‘40s Paris flavor, infused with vibrant musical surprises that captivate audiences. Steeped in salty stride piano and the music Louis Armstrong, Django Reinhardt and Fats Waller used to make, The Hot Sardines make straight-up, foot-stomping jazz. (Literally! Tap dancer “Fast Eddy” Francisco serves as the band’s second percussionist.) They invoke the sound of nearly a century ago, yet stay right in step with the current age. Hot jazz has taken New York and other cities by storm, and it’s coming to Wharton Center!

Performance Run time is approximately 75 minutes with no intermission.
Age recommendation: High School & Up
