2018 Hotsy Totsy Medley Video:

Picture
Have you ever wondered what the musical lovechild of Justin Bieber and
Antonio Carlos Jobim would sound like? Ever tried to picture a Lady Gaga concert in a 1920s speakeasy or cabaret?
We have!
We are
Hotsy Totsy, a group of young musicians from the Bay Area that get off on genre-bending covers of your favorite songs. Though steeped in the spontaneity and vitality of jazz, we’ll never hesitate to embrace earworms from the top 40 and beyond. We combine the two into a unique aesthetic that’s perfect for getting people to sing along and jump on the dance floor in any context!

Hotsy Totsy is comprised of the following performers:
- Rose, Female lead vocalist
- Nelsen, Acoustic guitar
- Chel, Double bass
- Jason, Sax (alto, tenor, soprano), Clarinet, Flute / Backup vocals
- Ben, Drums

The 5 piece band plays a variety of music styles - all played acoustically:
- Gypsy Jazz / Jazz Manouche / French Musette Favorites (in the style of Django Reinhardt & Stephane Grappelli, Edith Piaf, Yves Montand, Maurice Chevalier, Charles Aznavour, Charles Trenet)
- Classic Swing / Traditional Jazz / Big Band Favorites (Ella Fitzgerald, Nancy Wilson, Sarah Vaughn, Diana Krall...)
- 50s / 60s / 70s / 80s / 90s / Top 40 pop (Lady Gaga, Amy Winehouse, Coldplay, Avril Lavigne, The Weeknd, Alicia Keys, Christina Perry, Justin Bieber, Adele, Johnny Cash...)
