Linda Purl and trio deliver a memorable evening of authentic cabaret.

In their first gig back in NYC Nicolas King and The Mike Renzi Trio remind crowds what they've been missing all this time.

NICOLAS KING: HINDSIGHT IS 2020 was 70 minutes of awesome jazz technique, great storytelling, and honest showmanship. He acknowledges his musical influences with love and gratitude: Mel Tormé, Charles Aznavour, Fred Astaire, Carol Burnett, and most especially his mentor, Liza Minnelli. Their work shows up in his style, but in the end, his style is all his own.

Steve Olsen is presenting great music to go with the great food at his cherished Hell's Kitchen haunt.

Great American actress and songstress Linda Purl has released a new CD with Tedd Firth and Nelson Rangell and it is a musical journey par excellence.

The popular singer-songwriter was on hand at 54 Below to give all a night of love songs, and he sure captured and kept the hearts of his fans.

The French singing actor and star of theater and cabaret stages packed 54 Below with a crowd of rabid fans, old and new, and one hopes and prays it won't be the last time.

Day one of the 2019 Cabaret Convention presented by the Mabel Mercer Foundation featured Deborah Grace Winder hosting, 'The Sunny Side of the Street: Celebrating Dorothy Fields & Great Women Songwriters' starring Christine Andreas, Karrin Allyson, and more!

It was a spectacular start to the four night 2019 Cabaret Convention at Jazz at Lincoln Center's Rose Theater Last night.

Michael Feinstein's show 'I Happen To Like New York' hit all the right notes by bringing songs from both the classic American songbook and the 'new' American songbook to the Manhattan nightclub scene.

Nunziata fans are now going to be able to “take home Anthony” after his solo concert shows.  He's in the famed Samurai Hotel Recording Studios in Astoria, N.Y. recording his solo debut album as we speak.   You will not be able to take home his twin brother Will Nunziata on this CD.  It's only going to be Anthony's inspiring voice with soulful takes on classics like, “The Very Thought of You”, “When I Fall in Love”, “Can't Take My Eyes Off Of You”, “Somewhere”, 'Unchained Melody”, Can't Help Falling in Love with You” as well as his original songs including “I Found a Home,” Love Me Anyway”, and “Will You Be My Everyday?”

Nicolas King, one of the most  exciting, talented and technically disciplined JazzPop voices around was swinging at The Green Room 42 last night.
