Photo Coverage: New York Hot Jazz Festival Comes Back to The McKittrick Hotel

The McKittrick Hotel (530 West 27th Street, NYC), home of Sleep No More, and Hot Jazz Productions just presented the sixth annual New York Hot Jazz Festival will return to the hotel yesterday, September 30.

The New York Hot Jazz Festival spans the entire scope of early jazz music - from its New Orleans beginnings through the Jazz Age and Swing Era. Highlights include Hot Jazz Brunch at the hotel's rooftop Gallow Green, a lively NOLA-style Second Line parade, Antique Phonograph DJ and performance artists including tap dancers throughout the day.

A celebration of trad jazz with rising stars and legendary performers alike, the NY Hot Jazz Festival is renowned for showcasing the best talent of the hot jazz and swing revival in New York and beyond. This year's program gave a special nod to the Big Easy's tricentennial year, French jazz styles and a Fats Waller tribute.
