The duo of Eric Comstock (piano/vocals) and vocalist Barbara Fasano return to Birdland Theater for four Tuesdays in June: June 4, 11, 18, and 25 at 5:30 PM, with their set Sun! Skin! Sin! Sinatra! Joining them will be bassist Sean Smith.
Drawing from eclectic influences from Sinatra and Cole Porter classics to singer-songwriters such as Joni Mitchell and Jill Sobule — the duo has performed 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. As they did in their Saturday residency at Birdland, Comstock and Fasano will change their set weekly.
Fasano has won MAC awards for her CDs BUSY BEING FREE and WRITTEN IN THE STARS both for Major Recording of the Year. Comstock won the 2024 MAC Award for Major Male Artist. Winners of 9 MAC Awards, 5 New York Bistro Awards, and the New York Nightlife Award total, Comstock and Fasano have also received the Donald F. Smith Award from the Mabel Mercer Foundation, acknowledging their artistry.
