Brooklyn-based Chin Chin comes to 21c to celebrate their new album released on March
10th Chin Chin includes Louisville brothers Torbitt Schwartz and Wilder Zoby and
combines elements of jazz, funk, disco, contemporary R&B, rock, and electro.
With this eclectic fusion are smart lyrics, powerful horn arrangements, great showmanship,
and a taste for partying.
Originally intended to improvise back-up music for singers and emcees at a monthly
party in Brooklyn, Chin Chin has grown from its founding members of Wilder Zoby,
Torbitt Schwartz and Jeremy Wilms to include Tada Hirano, Jeff Pierce, Yusuke Yamamoto,
and Jesse Boykins III.
In New York as well as Europe, they have shared the stage with TV on the Radio,
Antibalas afro beat ensemble, Gogol Bordello, Sufjan Stevens, Lily Allen, ESG, Sharon
Jones & The Dap Kings, Theo Parrish, DJ Spinna, Doctor Dog, The Rogers, Sisters,
The Bravery, and VHS or Beta.
