Broadway at 60th Street New York, NY 10019Still thriving and evolving 30 years since its founding, the visionary quartet Sexmob continues to explode all preconceived notions of what an instrumental jazz band can be. Formed in 1996 out of a weekly residency at New York’s Knitting Factory, the band — slide trumpeter Steven Bernstein, alto/baritone saxophonist Briggan Krauss, bassist Tony Scherr, and drummer Kenny Wollesen — have changed the game with its raw, improvisatory groove and swing, endlessly inventive arrangements, and uproarious sense of fun. From their 1998 debut Din of Inequity onward, they’ve formed one of the truly enduring and substantive artistic bonds of their time. “At this point,” declared NPR First Listen, “Sexmob is a collective ideal.” The band earned a DownBeat Critics Poll Award (Beyond Group of the Year, 2002), appears on Bill Frisell’s GRAMMY-winning Unspeakable, and is currently touring with a new live album, Let X=X, out on Nonesuch. Over two nights at Dizzy's, the band will perform selections from their albums as listed below: Tue, Aug. 25 (1996-2011) 1998: Din of Inequity 2000: Solid Sender 2000: Theatre & Dance 2001: Sexmob Does Bond 2003: Dime Grind Palace 2006: Sexotica 2009: Sexmob Meets Medeski: Live in Willisau 2006 Wed, Aug. 26 (2012-2026) 2013: Cinema, Circus & Spaghetti (Sexmob Plays Fellini: The Music of Nino Rota) 2017: Cultural Capital 2023: The Hard Way 2026: Let X=X PERFORMANCE LINEUP Steven Bernstein, Slide Trumpet Briggan Krauss, Alto/Baritone Sax Tony Scherr, Bass Kenny Wollesen, Drums -
