The Hot Sardines
Quality is timeless. Just ask The Hot Sardines! Fueled by the belief that classic jazz feeds the heart and soul, The Hot Sardines are on a mission to make old sounds new again and prove that joyful music can bring people together in a disconnected world.
Their self-titled debut album, named by iTunes as one of the best jazz albums of 2014, spent more than a year on the Billboard Jazz Chart, debuting in the top 10 alongside Tony Bennett and Lady Gaga! This album features Broadway legend Alan Cumming, as well as an electric cover of Running Wild from the classic “Some Like It Hot!” Downbeat called The Hot Sardines “one of the most delightfully energetic bands on New York’s hot music scene,” while The London Times praised their “crisp musicianship” and “immaculate and witty showmanship,” declaring them “simply phenomenal.”
They met by answering a Craigslist ad about a jazz jam session, now they have sold out 150 international tour dates and were featured in both the Newport Jazz Festival and the Montreal Jazz Festival! The Hot Sardines stand apart for the innovation, verve and sheer joy they bring to music, both new and old.
