The Hot Sardines live in New York

Experience The Hot Sardines live on October 2nd

The Hot Sardines are scheduled to perform at Birdland Marina in New York City on October 2, 2026. The Hot Sardines are a modern jazz ensemble known for their energetic performances and revival of hot jazz, swing, and early American popular song from the 1920s through the 1940s. Their sound incorporates elements of Dixieland, swing, and Tin Pan Alley styles, often featuring vocals in both English and French. The band gained prominence through their busking performances in New York City subways and have since released several albums to critical acclaim.

Birdland Marina is a relatively recent addition to the New York City jazz scene, opening in 2023 as an extension of the historic Birdland Jazz Club located further uptown. Situated on West 44th Street, it provides a more intimate and relaxed setting than its parent club while maintaining a commitment to presenting high-quality jazz performances. The space aims to evoke the atmosphere of classic jazz clubs with a nautical theme – referencing Charlie Parker’s nickname “Bird” – reflected in its decor. It functions as a dedicated listening room focused on showcasing both established artists and emerging talent within the genre.
