Puttin’ On The Ritz is like that favorite shirt in your closet – the one you reach for when you want one that is comfortable and works whether you are dressing up, down or somewhere in between.  Flashy and trendy shirts that used to hang around it have come and gone, but the one you always feel good in is still there.

Ten members strong, the Ritz lineup includes a standard rhythm section, a horn section, keyboards, dual percussionists, and several vocalists that take turns at the mic doing tunes from the wide range of styles the band covers.  In addition to Matt Mielnick (rhythm guitar and vocals) the current lineup includes Ann Carey (featured lead vocalist); Mark Sisti (lead guitar and vocals) and brother Alex Sisti (bass and vocals), both veterans of the Justice McBride Band, the King Cool Blues Band, and the Blarney Rebel Band; Joe Perry (keyboards); notable sax player Monk Rowe; Eddie Meelan (trumpet and vocals); Linda Krumme (clarinet), and outstanding drums and percussion players Darryl Mattison and Lenny Milano.
