Live Jazz in New York

4 stride piano killers battle Harlem-style—hot jazz, cocktails, Charleston dancing & no mercy. June 11 at Francis Kite Club In the golden age of Harlem, the piano cutting session was the ultimate proving ground. No backing band. No safety net. Just two hands, eighty-eight keys, and the nerve to step up and cut the man before you. Da Lion's Den II resurrects that raw, unfiltered tradition. Four pianists with serious chops go head to head — pushing each other harder with every chorus, raising the temperature with every round. The music will be hot, the room will be moving, and cocktails will be flowing all night long at the Francis Kite Club — an elegant intimate bar curated for exactly this kind of evening. This is Harlem Stride the way it was meant to be heard — loud, live, and dangerous.
