Pianist and singer Eric Comstock and vocalist Barbara Fasano, resume their residency at Birdland for three Tuesdays: September 3, 10, and 17 at 5:30 PM. Joining them will be bassist Sean Smith, who has been performing with the duo for 15 years.
Drawing from an ever-evolving songbook—jazz and pop classics by Ellington, Arlen and Porter to modern masters Joni Mitchell, Bruce Springsteen and Carole King, plus surprising gems—this musical couple’s swinging showmanship has made them among the nightclub world’s most popular teams.
Their performances have taken them from Carnegie Hall and Lincoln Center to Saratoga Jazz Festival, Music Mountain Twilight Jazz, London’s Pizza Express, Italy’s Monteverdi Tuscany and nightclubs and music festivals across the country. Their new album, Painting the Town, features tenor saxophone legend Houston Person, drops later this year.
There is a $30 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 in New York.
