Lucky Moon Zooz Brings Brass Dance Party to Sherman Theater June 9 in the Poconos

Lucky Moon Zooz Brings Brass Dance Party to Sherman Theater in the Poconos

The Sherman Theater in Stroudsburg has announced that three bands, known collectively as Lucky Moon Zooz, will bring their brass dance party to the Poconos on Friday, June 9.

Lucky Moon Zooz Brings Brass Dance Party to Sherman Theater in the Poconos

Lucky Moon Zooz is the horn powered super band comprised of Too Many Zooz, Moon Hooch, and Lucky Chops. A project years in the making, the LMZ live show will feature each band performing in their usual configurations as well as a host of new combinations of the various bands’ personnel, culminating in all three bands performing together in their entirety.

Lucky Moon Zooz is the horn powered super band comprised of Too Many Zooz, Moon Hooch, and Lucky Chops.

Though the band turned heads in the music industry as relative unknowns with a charismatic, unconventional sound, they were already a familiar and beloved sight to strangers in New York, who would react with such joy and fervor to their impromptu subway platform sets that the NYPD had to ban them from locations that couldn’t handle the crowds.

NY Mag once referred to their sound as “Jay Gatsby on ecstasy,” while the NY Post fell for their “catchy melodic hooks and funky rhythms,” saying they had “the power to make you secretly wish that the short subway wait becomes an indefinite delay.”

Drawing from their shared roots busking in the NYC subway to their years touring the world, this is the brass fueled dance party of the millennium! Too Many Zooz are a busking phenomenon born in the subways of New York City. Their unique sound smashes together jazz, Afro-Cuban rhythms, funk, EDM structures and house music. Their amazing Youtube clips have millions of views and they performed live with Beyonce and The Dixie Chicks at the CMA Awards.

Show: Lucky Moon Zooz

Date: Friday, June 9

Time: Doors – 7:00; Show – 8:00
