About Mike Palin’s Other Orchestra
It's a funky Big Band thing; a large jazz ensemble that rocks the house. Playing music from Tower of Power, Frank Zappa, The Brecker Brothers, Jaco Pastorius, Steely Dan, Miles Davis, Snarky Puppy, Weather Report, and so many other great modern composers and arrangers. You'll want to see this band again and again!
Michael Palin's Other Orchestra draws some of the most talented jazz musicians in the Hartford and mid-CT area, and Sara Sherman is the band’s resident vocalist. Other Orchestra typifies the high caliber of entertainment that's available to those willing to search for it. Since March 2011, this feisty, funky big band has been exciting audiences with its tantalizing mix of jazz standards, fusion favorites, and quality rock tunes.
The band truly sounds like no other jazz ensemble in the area, and it is just as likely to delve into Frank Zappa's zany repertoire, as it is to take on standards such as Johnny Mandel's beautiful "A Time for Love." One moment, the audience will hear a Steely Dan hit; the next it might be something from Weather Report's catalogue.
Palin put together what he refers to as "version 1.0" of Other Orchestra in 1998, and that group became a regular at Hartford’s 880 Club on Maple Avenue for years. While the current edition of the orchestra doesn't have a long track record, it has already attracted the attention of many of the area's most talented players, west of I-91.
Come check them out; you won’t be disappointed.

For summer 2024, we bring you BIG BAND Small Screen, a smorgasboard of great tunes, earworms, and big band classics, all of them tunes we have seen and loved on the "small" screen as television or cartoon music, often written by some of the biggest names in big band writing, including Neal Hefti, Quincy Jones, and Lalo Schiffrin. Tunes on the program include Bewitched, The Simpsons, Rockford Files, Batman, and much more.
