Our story

Summer Fling is a seven-piece band based in New York City, blending funk, soul, pop, and jazz into a groove-driven sound and exhilarating live show.

Founded by vocalist Eddie Kam and saxophonist Grant Tucker, the group began as a loose collaboration between friends and quickly grew into a band focused on creating high-energy, communal live experiences.A three-piece horn section gives Summer Fling its punch, while the band’s foundation in jazz and musical theater allows them to move fluidly across different genres and styles. Their performances are tight, responsive, and built to keep audiences engaged from start to finish.

They perform constantly across New York City and the Northeast, building a reputation as one of the hardest-working live bands in the region. Recent appearances include Mr. Purple, Stephen Talkhouse, and The Elements Music Festival. Formed during the pandemic, the band carries a lasting appreciation for live music as a shared experience. That perspective drives their focus on connection, presence, and making each show feel immediate.

Like their melting popsicle logo, Summer Fling embraces the fact that live music is temporary. Their goal is simple: make it count while it lasts- and leave people with something they won’t forget.
