The Hot Sardines: Holiday Stomp

ECU's S. Rudolph Alexander Performing Arts Series presents the Hot Sardines.
The Sardine sound – wartime Paris via New Orleans, or the other way around – is steeped in hot jazz, salty stride piano, and the kind of music Louis Armstrong, Django Reinhardt and Fats Waller used to make: Straight-up, foot-stomping jazz. (Literally – the band includes a tap dancer whose feet count as two members of the rhythm section). In Holiday Stomp, the Sardines infuse yuletide classics with lesser-known gems such as Ella Fitzgerald’s “Santa Claus Got Stuck in My Chimney.” Expect plenty of surprises along the merry way! Individual tickets for this event are available on October 28.
