In a Nutshell

Rising band touted by Rolling Stone rocks stage with powerful, Motown-style vocals and funky fusion of soul and pop

The Fine Print

Music is a force powerful enough to calm a baby, soothe a wild beast, or compel the two to dance with each other. Be overcome by this GrouponLive deal to see Fitz & the Tantrums at the Mayo Performing Arts Center. For $28, you get one ticket for reserved seating in Section A or B on Thursday, September 20, at 8 p.m. (up to a $55 value, including all fees). Valid seats appear in red (Section A) and blue (Section B) on the seating chart. Doors open at 7:30 p.m.

After serendipitously acquiring a vintage organ, six-musician band Fitz & the Tantrums lit upon a part-soul, part-pop sound that rocketed the collective from its living room to the stage of The Tonight Show with Jay Leno in about a year. Since then, the sextet has toured relentlessly, spreading their giddy dancehall funk from shore to shore. Eschewing guitars in favor of powerful, Motown-esque vocals from Noelle Scaggs and instruments ranging from keys to saxophone, the band dedicated its debut album, Pickin' Up The Pieces, to classic rock ‘n’ roll subjects that include heartache, politics, and child-rearing strategies. Fans can expect them to flex their six-string shunning muscles in a marathon performance, rife with favorites such as "Moneygrabber" and "Don’t Gotta Work It Out," along with modernist jams from their upcoming second album. Eight-bit maestro Robert DeLong breaks in dancing shoes with an opening set of genre-puréeing electronic rock, performed with keyboards, laptops, and Nintendo Wii and Sega Genesis remotes.

Mayo Performing Arts Center

During Hollywood's Golden Age, The Community Theatre was the crowning achievement of Walter Reade's chain of New Jersey movie palaces. By the 1980s, after five decades of movie screenings and catastrophic popcorn wars, the theater sat in disrepair. Concerned citizens banded together in 1994 to save the historic building from a sad end, and in May 2011, after a series of renovations, the theater officially changed its name to the Mayo Performing Arts Center. The venue currently hosts more than 200 performances a year, occasional art showings, and performance-arts education classes for adults and children.
