$15/$20 door

Doors at 7

Four Piece Suit is “a highball of sea-foam-soaked guitar and squalling tenor sax, shaken—not stirred—with surf tangos, Battista-era mambos, beach blanket boppers, spy music, crime jazz, and movie themes.” The predominantly instrumental group brings humor, romance and a pulsing rhythm to the category-defying range musical styles they reinvent. Heard on soundtracks for Sex and the City and Dexter, Four Piece Suit puts on a sizzling live show.
The band is:David Becker-bass, Jeff Giacomelli-sax, Seth Pappas-drums, Milt Reder-guitar. For more on 4PS, please visit www.fourpiecesuit.com. Truly beyond category, their eclectic instrumental, sometimes jazz, sometimes rock style, brings forth a unique blend of long forgotten musical influences and often suggests a certain film noir feeling.
The sexy, sophisticated, yet tongue-in-cheek music of FOUR PIECE SUIT is frequently featured on the highly acclaimed HBO series Sex and the City, Telemundo, NBC’s Ed, Dexter on CBS, and cable shows such as Keeping Up with the Kardashians, America’s Top Model, Run’s House, and many others. Film work includes Our Lips are Sealed (Olsen Twins), In the Weeds (Molly Ringwald), Stag (HBO films), Psycho Beach Party, Along Came Polly (Jennifer Aniston), and others.
The band has also been heard in many independent films, including Sundance Festival Winner Blue Vinyl. They have also done a full score for an HBO claymation film, Real Men Wear Hawaiian Shirts, an award winner at the San Francisco Film Festival.
Like many of the greatest bands, only at a live show can one really “get” what FOUR PIECE SUIT is all about…

R&B howler Barrence Whitfield is a man who lives for the era when rhythm & blues and rock & roll walked hand in hand, and his revved-up music and over-the-top vocal style make him one of the wildest frontmen of his time. A frantic soul shouter in the spirit of Little Richard, Wilson Pickett, and Don Covay, Whitfield and his band the Savages earned a potent cult following after the release of their self-titled debut album in 1984. 1985's Dig Yourself and 1987 Ow! Ow! Ow! expanded on its energy. Whitfield sat out most of the 2000s, but 2012's Dig Thy Savage Soul proved he still had the goods, and 2018's Soul Flowers of Titan and 2023's Glory showed his command of party-starting soul was still potent.
