About this event
The Hi-Stakes was founded in Amsterdam in 2018 by Sam Ghezzi, a multi-instrumentalist, singer and bandleader of multiple bands touring internationally. In 2024, the band visited Mexico and Brazil, presenting their debut album The Hi-Stakes. In Europe, the band has performed at renowned festivals such as North Sea Jazz Festival and Jamboree Festival, as well as numerous venues and festivals across the continent. Recently, The Hi-Stakes recorded their third album, This Is Boogaloo. The Hi-Stakes is a hyperactive hyped hip Rhythm ‘n’ Blues band based in Amsterdam. Original tunes, with lyrics full of irony and passion, played authentically from a vast range of popular genres of the time, be it a Blue Note Records’ boogaloo or an explosive old school rhythm ‘n blues number; in other words, their repertoire (entirely original) covers anything in between the jazz and the blues worlds. “Sam’s concerts employ the full toolbox of the true performer: costume, theater, drama, exuberance and pathos are all put to work.” - Matt Munisteri "WHERE STYLE MEETS SOUND" – A BAND THAT MATCHES THEIR VINTAGE SOUND WITH A PERFECTLY TAILORED VISUAL IDENTITY - IL DOLOMIT www.samghezzi.com/the-hi-stakes/ https://www.facebook.com/thehistakes https://www.youtube.com/@samghezzi Spotify
