Hot Sardines

A Sound that Sizzles


Saturday, January 21, 2017

7:30 pm // Atwood Concert Hall

The Hot Sardines’ sound can be described as “wartime Paris via New Orleans.” Bandleader Evan “Bibs” Palazzo and vocalist Miz Elizabeth (who sings in both English and French, with a voice from another era) combine with an ensemble of powerhouse musicians – and their very own tap dancer – to play “hot jazz” with glamour, grit, and a whole lot of passion. Their influences include Fats Waller, Django Reinhardt, Billie Holiday, and Ray Charles. The band sold out New York’s famous Joe’s Pub for 15 straight shows, and have headlined the prestigious Lincoln Center. Forbes Magazine calls The Hot Sardines “one of the best jazz bands in NYC today.” You can experience their unique sound right here in Anchorage.
