GET TICKETSFresh off the critically acclaimed run of their musical "We Are Your Robots" at the Polonsky Shakespeare Center in Brooklyn, and a sold-out concert in Lincoln Center's Alice Tully Hall, Ethan Lipton & His Orchestra return to the home office to do it how they do it when they do it downtown.
For two decades, this quartet has been playing its own style of jazz/folk/alternative nosh with a chewy singer-songwriter center. With melancholy wit and a cockeyed worldview, Lipton and bandmates Eben Levy (guitar), Ian Riggs (bass), and Vito Dieterle (sax) deliver original songs steeped in mixed-message sincerity and soul. The band has appeared at such venues as Celebrate Brooklyn, MASS MOCA, Pitchfork Paris, SF Jazz, ATP, and London’s Gate Theatre, and made appearances on NPR and in "The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel.” A winner of the 2023 Kleban Prize and a 2023 Creative Capital Grantee, Lipton received one of Joe’s Pub’s first New York Voices commissions, and the band premiered its musicals “No Place to Go” (Obie award) and “The Outer Space” (Lortel nomination) on its stages.

Runtime 90 minutes
Hilarious… twisted, sophisticated, schleppy and sad all at once...songs that take the mundane of life and twist it.
Sly, smart as heck, and somehow both extremely tender and laugh-out-loud funny.
