"The Howard Fishman Quartet may sound like the name of a jazz group, but jazz isn't really a word that comes close to describing the varied influences of the band. New Orleans funk, classical music and pop all appear in a scintillating mix. The band, which includes a violinist and trumpeter, is held together by Fishman's gritty singing style... and a clutch of brilliant songs that feel swept off the doorsteps of Tin Pan Alley."                   
-THE WASHINGTON POST  


Acclaimed singer, guitarist, composer and bandleader Howard Fishman's exuberant, spontaneous, and unvarnished music has made him a favorite of audiences and critics alike. Ever-evolving and increasingly difficult to pin down, Fishman filters a deep passion for New Orleans jazz, lo-fi pop, fervent gospel and open-hearted country music through a completely original aesthetic to create a sound entirely his own.
Fishman is consistently accompanied by some of New York's finest musicians, many of whom will be joining him tonight as he previews material from his three upcoming releases of original material, and dips into his extensive back-catalogue as well.  Expect a special guest or two!
