SUNNY SIDE is a jazz band based out of New Orleans, Louisiana. They are heavily influenced by the music of Louis Armstrong, Duke Ellington, Nat King Cole, Fats Waller, and many other early jazz legends. The band name ‘Sunny Side’ was influenced by the 1930 Fats Waller/Jimmy McHugh jazz standard ‘On the Sunny Side of the Street’. The 7-piece band was created in 2019, and is composed of musicians that have played together in various jazz projects around New Orleans since 2017. Sunny Side made their debut appearance with Gottaswing in August 2024, and we are DELIGHTED to welcome them back!
