About

FITZ AND THE TANTRUMS IN CONCERT:

Retro indie-pop group Fitz and the Tantrums are keeping the Motown Sound alive and well with their modern take on classic soul and funk. Combining call-and-response vocals,  backbeat tambourines, and vintage-inspired instrumentation, the band's electric live shows are equal parts shimmy and shake, inspiring nonstop dance parties as fans sing along to infectious pop masterpieces like "MoneyGrabber" and "Out of My League." Riding high on the success of their sophomore album More than Just a Dream, Fitz and the Tantrums are set to treat fans to another round of unforgettable shows on tour in 2014.

BACKGROUND SNAPSHOT:

Michael Fitzpatrick formed LA-based Fitz and the Tantrums in 2008 after purchasing a Conn electronic organ -- an instrument that would prove vital in the development of the band's retro sound. The group performed their first show just one week after their first rehearsal, underscoring an effortless chemistry that was readily apparent on their 2009 debut EP Songs for a Breakup, Vol. 1. After touring with Maroon 5 and performing at SXSW, the band signed with Dangerbird Records for their 2010 debut LP Pickin' Up the Pieces. The album landed at No. 1 on the Billboard's Heatseekers Albums Chart, establishing the group as one of the most promising rising talents in indie-pop and paving the way for 2013 sophomore effort More than Just  a Dream — a Top 40 hit on the Billboard 200.

"Fitz And The Tantrums put on a great concert!!! The setlist was awesome and the crowd was singing and dancing with the band!!!"

"Loved this concert. They were so good -- all their music is so distinct. Excellent musicianship all the way around and TONS of energy."

The whole concert is so high energy, I was dancing the whole time with much of the crowd. They seem like genuine people as well - really appreciative of the fans."

    Hooked on Fitz and The Tantrums!

    by Joicie on 1/21/11Bowery Ballroom - NEW YORK

    Amazing, awesome, brillant! I can't say enough about this band. After seeing them on a late night tv program playing Money Grabber, I was hooked. I can't remember the last time I LOVED every single song a band played. They get the crowd going with their own current, yet reto style. Their music is amazing and the lyrics are catchy. (Lyrics we all can relate to). Their music crosses generations and appeals to all. Fitz and Nicole have a good chemistry. I predict that Fitz and The Tantrums will make it big! I can't remember having so much fun at a show. It's rare that y a band produces so many hits. Wow! I can't wait to see them again!

    Great nite out!

    by EchoParkDenizen on 11/20/10El Rey Theatre - Los Angeles

    The band kept the pace fast except for a couple songs. They did a great job of keeping the crowd moving. They played their entire 1st album and threw in a few new ones on the way which were also quite catchy. Highly recommend checking them out live.

    Epic!

    by HammaHamma on 11/11/10The Crocodile - Seattle

    Fitz and the Tantrums were absolutely extraordinary! This is not a genre of music that is played much anymore so it was such a thrill to see a young band in their prime knocking this stuff out of the park. The singing was top notch, nearly every word of the lyrics could be heard clearly and the two singers have excellent voices. The band was tight and professional and sounded great. There was not a poor song to the night. You know it's a great band when the cover song in the encore is great, but not as good as their original stuff. There is nothing more damning of a band than to sit through their set unmoved until they pull out a cover in the encore that makes you sit up and take notice - take notice that the cover is a much, much better song. These guys were great, I would see them again in a heartbeat. I drug six friends to the show on the hope they would be as good as their potential and I was not disappointed. Everyone had a great time even though none of the others had ever heard their music before. Catch them next time if you can!
