Third concert in The City of New Orleans series promises a rich night of timeless swing, reimagined R&B, and vibrant stage energy
The Piano Man, in collaboration with The City of New Orleans, is all set to host Shantha Tara’s Jazz Sextet on July 27 — a performance that promises to merge the golden charm of jazz with the richness of modern soul and R&B.This marks the third concert in the ongoing series between the celebrated venue and the New Orleans initiative, spotlighting jazz’s global legacy through new interpretations and dynamic musical collaborations.
Fronted by the versatile Shantha Tara, whose soulful vocals form the emotional core of the ensemble, the sextet is known for breathing fresh life into jazz standards and reimagined pop classics.
