Jazz and Swing Concerts at The Roxy Hotel NYC

We held a monthly residency at the Roxy Hotel Upstairs Lounge in New York for over five years, right up to the start of the pandemic. In fact, our last show there was scheduled for Friday March 13, 2020 - and was cancelled hours prior to downbeat.

We have worked with so many amazing staff members over the years, there, including Ryan Young is a superior engineer who had created sound for iconic NYC and national touring acts, such as Brian Newman and alike; a legendary NYC DJ, Actor, and Model Alix Brown - and many others!

One of the thrilling elements of the show, for us, was to see our name on the Roxy Hotel ‘s marque.

Roxy Hotel is a New York luxury hotel offering accommodations in the sought-after TriBeCa neighborhood. For the action-seekers, attention-getters and rabble-rousers, The Roxy Hotel and its surrounding neighborhood have long been a hub of creativity. Consider that steps away, in 1978, the Mudd Club was the nexus of the city’s underground music and art scene with a gallery curated by Keith Haring. The Talking Heads were performing at Tribeca’s Ocean Club. Then came the era of The Odeon, Keith McNally’s still-open dining destination, catering to the movie and financial people colonizing Soho and Tribeca’s lofts.

The Tribeca Grand was the first major hotel in an area home to boldface celebrities and a dynamic mix of restaurants, shops, financial institutions and thriving independent film companies. Envisioned by Soho Grand owners Leonard and Emanuel Stern to be a sister property, Tribeca Grand long thrived.

In 2015, it was time for a second act. The name “The Roxy Hotel Tribeca” was born, a name with its own scintillating New York history. Evoking the spectacular 1920s movie theater and the legendary ‘90s dance club, The Roxy is an electric destination for music, film, and art. The guest rooms were fully renovated to give a wink to the past, yet are modern and uniquely “Roxy”. And with venues like Paul’s Cocktail Lounge, The Django jazz club, Jack’s Stir Brew Coffee, Blackstones Salon and the newly renovated Roxy Cinema, the hotel continues to be the pioneer it was born to be..

Not only we created many friendships with the welcoming Roxy Hotel staff, but also with the patrons who came downtown from near and far to hear us play. We can’t wait to be back once the pandemic ban on live shows is lifted again! Please enjoy some photos for our shows by the friend, amazing photographer, Richard Velasco.
