The Hot Sardines at South Orange Performing Arts Center (SOPAC) – South Orange Village, NJ

The Hot Sardines

Tickets available at www.sopacnow.org, starting at $40 (not including fees).

Step into a roaring, joy-filled celebration with “one of the best jazz bands in NY today” (Forbes). 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, blending brassy horn arrangements, rollicking piano, and transporting vocals into a sound that’s both timeless and irresistibly fresh.

• Jazz for the 21st Century: With sold-out shows at Newport and Montreal Jazz Festivals, chart-topping albums, and critical raves, The Hot Sardines breathe new life into the Great American Songbook, reinventing classics and originals with wit and verve.
• Unforgettable Performers: This dynamic collective channels the energy of New York speakeasies, Parisian cabarets, and New Orleans jazz halls.
• Innovative & Inclusive: They blend high and low culture, glamour and grit, all while drawing multi-generational crowds to the dance floor.

Whether you’re a jazz aficionado or a newcomer, The Hot Sardines promise an evening of pure musical joy, where every note is a party and every show is a celebration!
