The Holiday Hustle Club is a holiday-themed homage to the era of iconic nightclubs. Inspired by songwriters and vocalists like Birdland, Irving Berlin and Ella Fitzgerald, local songwriter and pianist Bart King joins up with Chris Enghauser on double bass, Louis Romanos on drums and Jeremy Raj on electric guitar to perform both original and classic songs. The night also includes several guest performers, this year’s being Claire Campbell, Tracy Brown, Anthony Zuniga, Alys Willman, Philip Kohnen, Michael Joe White, Chloe Floyd and Lisa and Lucille King. King began releasing music for the occasion last year, debuting the EP Snow Day!, which features three original songs alongside covers of “Jolly Old St. Nicholas” and “We Wish You a Merry Christmas.” This year, The Holiday Hustle Club released a new single called “White Elephant Waltz.”
