Doors @ 6:30pm | Show @ 7:30pmNotes on Seating: The Jack London provides two options for ticket purchasers. Reserved Seating is purchased on a table-by-table basis in the central part of the venue and is only available for select shows. Seating in the General Admission section is limited, first come first served, and may be standing room only.Dubbed 10-piece jazz sensations by LA Weekly and hot off their sold out show at the prestigious Tucson Jazz Festival, Lizzy one part Eartha Kitt, one part Ella Fitzgerald, on part Amy Winehouse. The show is a joyously subversive (Broadway World) mixture of vintage pop, show tunes, and biting originals that highlight Lizzys wicked sense of humor (which she previously used to create Emmy-nominated TV shows). What you will not hear: In the Mood. What you will hear: sinfully catchy swing songs about corporate greed, gaslighting, and sublimated female rage. Like the great tunes of the 1930s which so inspire them, their music boldly tackles our modern troubles and turns them into killer dance songs that fill the audience with joy the way only a wailing horn section can. As their debut EP succinctly states: they make Good Songs for Bad Times.The band is helmed by operatically-trained Lizzy Shapiro, who Broadway World hailed as a powerhouse vocalist and songwriter and the New Times raved is dripping with badittude. She teamed up with legendary musician and arranger, Dan Barrett (who played with and arranged for Benny Goodman). Their 2020 debut album, Good Songs for Bad Times, hit #3 on the iTunes Jazz Charts alongside jazz royalty Miles Davis and Kamasi Washington. They quickly went from performing in speakeasies to selling out top venues across the country, and breaking glass ceilings for swing music, including touring with Squeeze, sharing bills with acts like Samara Joy, Cecile McClorin Salvant, Best Coast, Nancy Sinatra, Nick Waterhouse, and being chosen for SXSW.The star power doesnt stop with Lizzy. It emanates through her entire incredible band, a multi-generational dream team of crushers who have played with everyone from Harry Connick Jr. to Woody Herman to Rachel and Vilray.
