Lizzy & the Triggermen

Presented by City Winery Boston at City Winery Boston

Dubbed "10-piece jazz sensations" by LA Weekly and hot off their sold out show at the prestigious Tucson Jazz Festival, Lizzy & the Triggermen transport you back to the glamour of the Jazz Age, but with a sound and swagger that is thrillingly new (think Count Basie meets Amy Winehouse).

The band is helmed by Boston native, Lizzy Shapiro, who Broadway World hailed as "a powerhouse vocalist and songwriter" and the New Times raved is "dripping with badittude." She created the band alongside musical director, Dan Barrett (who played with and arranged for Benny Goodman). Their 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 famed rock band Squeeze and being chosen for SXSW.

The show is a joyously subversive mixture of vintage pop, show tunes, and biting originals that highlight Lizzy's wicked sense of humor (which she used to create Emmy-nominated TV shows). You can catch Lizzy & the Triggermen's electrifying live show on Friday, April 5th at City Winery at 7:30pm. The audience is encouraged to come as dolled up as they’d like.
