Fitz from Fitz & The Tantrums play the 3 of Clubs Hollywood CA

Fitz & The Tantrums aren’t what you expect. Their melodic retro Motown/Soul infused rhythms keep the crowd guessing. Think Amy Winehouse on Orange Juice. The sound and the vibe for Songs for a Break Up-Vol 1 EP have everything to do with the acquisition of an old church organ, recommended by an ex-girlfriend. A phone call reluctantly returned that inspired Fitz to write the title track “Breakin’ The Chains of Love” the night he got it.

The skinny ties, the fitted suits, the saxophone solos all make an evening at the 3 of Clubs in Hollywood CA a complete trip back in time. There is no better place to visually experience this band. From the welcoming red upholstered doors to the stocked ladies rooms, to the fact that its one of those mysterious locations in Hollywood sans an actual sign outside, the whole vibe screams its not you, it’s me! But baby, we can “fitz” this!
