MICHAEL GARIN & MARDIE MILLIT will make their Birdland Theater debut on Friday, January 24, 2020 at 7pm. Their show, Michael & Mardie…And Other Delights salutes the ‘60s in their own inimitable way. From Jimi Hendrix to Fiddler on the Roof, this husband and wife team deliver with the patented goofiness and musical virtuosity that is Michael & Mardie!
Manhattan Musical duo, Michael Garin & Mardie Millit, have been known to stir up delicious musical mayhem wherever they go. Michael is a Drama Desk Award-winning composer/lyricist (for Song of Singapore) and Emerson College dropout who has made a living entertaining New Yorkers, playing the piano and singing at the Monkey Bar, The Rainbow Room, the VIP Room at Limelight and the Williamstown Theater Festival, to name a few. Mardie has a degree in Classical Voice from The Ohio State University and spent many years playing roles like Eliza Doolittle in My Fair Lady and Maria in The Sound of Music in regional theatres around the country before embarking on a cabaret career.
Michael & Mardie met each other at Jim Caruso’s Cast Party at Birdland in 2005 and began performing together soon after, most notably on Sunday nights at the legendary Elaine’s, from 2008 until its closing in 2011. They have brought their unique blend of musical virtuosity and goofy charm to Manhattan clubs 54 Below, Le Cirque, the Village Underground, Iridium, the Rainbow Room and Django, among others. Michael is currently the house pianist at the Roxy Hotel in Tribeca, where he plays his renowned musical mashups every Tuesday through Saturday; Mardie is working on a solo cabaret show and recently appeared in Pippin with Dream Productions this past fall. They married in 2012 and live in Harlem.
