Critically acclaimed jazz band to perform at The Etherredge Center

The Cultural Series rings in the New Year with a live performance showcases classic and contemporary cartoon accompanied by live jazz

Aiken, SC (01/06/2021) — Jazz band The Queen's Cartoonists will perform at the Etherredge Center for the Fine and Performing Arts at The University of South Carolina Aiken on Saturday, January 16 at 2 p.m.

The Queen's Cartoonists play music from classic cartoons and contemporary animation. The performances are synchronized to video projections of the original films, and the band leads the audience through a world of virtuosic musicianship, multi-instrumental mayhem, and comedy.

Tying this diverse concert together are comedic anecdotes involving the cartoons and their composers. The band is on a musical mission of equal parts performance, preservation, and education. The repertoire combines elements from the golden age of animation, cult cartoon classics, contemporary animation, and a musical circus!
