Mark your calendars! This will be Klazz-Ma-Tazz's final appearance before releasing their new album, "Meshugenah" in April. Klazz-Ma-Tazz is excited to close out their winter residency at Club Bonafide with this special pre-album release concert. Come get a live sneak peak of their newest music: brand new original compositions and uniquely re-imagined jazz and rock interpretations of American Yiddish Theater and Klezmer classics for a nostalgically progressive and modern audience.

Founded in 2014 by violinist and composer Benjamin Sutin, Klazz-Ma-Tazz is a band with a vision to transcend boundaries of labels in music and people. Their music, rooted in the jazz/fusion idiom strives to include genuine influence from a multitude of folk and pop music from around the world based on the various ethnic backgrounds and musical sensibilities of each band member, finding common musical and cultural identities from which these various forms are derived. Creating this musical melting pot makes NYC the perfect home for Klazz-Ma-Tazz, a city who’s entire history is based on the very idea of uniting people from around the world to create something new and distinct. Klazz-Ma-Tazz released their debut album, Tangibility, in September, 2015 on OneTrickDog* Records. The album has since received airplay on radio stations from Philadelphia to Hawaii, doubling the band’s global fan base. Tangibility was launched with sold out sets at Greenwich Village's cultural haven, The Cornelia Street Cafe to rave reviews by Fred Stal of RG Magazine, who described the music: “Wild, yet reserved, the music of Klazz-Ma-Tazz will surprise you, excite you and calm you, all in one sitting”. Since then the band has performed for large and enthusiastic crowds at venues across the North East including World Cafe Live (Philadelphia), City Winery (NYC), and DROM, ShapeShifter Lab, Shrine, Silvana, Club Bonafide, among others. In January and March, 2017, Klazz-Ma-Tazz was joined on stage by world renowned Klezmer singer, Zhenya Lopatnik for a series of concerts in NYC and Washington D.C.
