Birdland Jazz Club will present the return of Golden Globe-winning singer and songwriter Amanda McBroom to celebrate the release of her new recording Wintersong, on Monday, September 23 at 7:00 PM.
This collection of songs to mark the winter holidays features seasonal standards, musical surprises by Dan Fogelberg, Joni Mitchell and Ken Hirsch, in addition to McBroom’s own collaborations with her writing partners Michele Brourman and Ann Hampton Callaway.
McBroom first came to the attention of music lovers when Bette Midler’s version of her song “The Rose” hit number one all over the world in 1979. In addition to Midler, her songs have been recorded by a wide variety of artists including Amy Poehler and Jack Black, Barry Manilow, Judy Collins, Barbara Cook, LeAnn Rimes, Harry Belafonte, Betty Buckley, The Manhattan Transfer, Donny Osmond, Kurt Cobain, Nana Mouskouri, Conway Twitty, the Chipmunks and the Baby Dinosaurs in Land Before Time (she wrote all the songs for 16 Universal videos with collaborator Michele Brourman).
There is a $35 music charge and a $20 food and beverage minimum. For reservations, please call (212) 581-3080 or visit www.BirdlandJazz.com.
Birdland is located at 315 West 44th Street (between 8th and 9th Avenues) in Manhattan.
