We’re bringing in a wooden dance floor so the Side Door will be alive with music and motion. For tickets and information, you can call our box office at 727-822-3590, or just follow this link. Showtime for the Thursday, 3-21 show is 7:30 p.m.
Svetlana is a critically acclaimed vocalist and she and the band have been labeled “NYC Darlings” by Time Out Magazine. Svetlana’s shows transport the audiences to the carnival of sound, seamlessly moving from sophisticated and sultry retrospection to a rowdy joyous dance party.
Svetlana and her band have headlined sold out shows in the premier venues and festivals across the US and internationally (Tel Aviv Blues Festival, Italian Villas and Jazz Festival, Blue Note Jazz Festival – as well as the Blue Note, BBKings Blues Club, Iridium Jazz Club, Joe’s Pub, Boston’s Regatta Bar, many Performance Arts Theaters and Festivals around the US) – gaining critical acclaim from audiences and press alike by presenting exhilarating shows that combine the charm of Svetlana’s sultry swinging vocals, with the the excitement, power, and unpredictable improvisational aspects of her “little big band”, the Delancey Five.
Svetlana’s album “Night at the Speakeasy” (produced by Grammy Award winning Guy Eckstine) has been released to critical acclaim on Origin Records, charted on Jazz Radio charts (was among “most added” in Jan 2016) and was critic’s choice for Top 10 2016 albums.
