A big rock show from Sweet Soubrette! This will be Sweet Soubrette’s last big band show for a little while, so we’re making it special.
Sweet Soubrette will have NINE band members onstage for this one. Our auxiliary band members appeared in the big release show back in January and on our NYC tour stop in April, and we’re excited to be reunited: New Orleans keyboard player Patrick Cronin, local rockstar Stacy Rock singing backup, and a horn section made up of the Hungry March Band’s John Waters and Cecil Scheib along with ThingNY’s Erin Rogers. It will be a glorious sound.
The incredible Kelli Rae Powell will open the night with her band, and two other awesome acts, The NowhereNauts and Odetta Hartman, will follow us. You don’t want to miss this!!!
The show is open to audience members age 16 and up, so feel free to bring your little sister, your kid brother, your underage cousin, your secret love child, or your child bride.
