Following her recent sold-out performances, Susan Mack returns to Birdland to debut Yesterdays, a new show with a diverse and timeless set of standards, on Monday, November 14 at 7 PM. The show features Tedd Firth (Musical Director/piano), David Finck (bass), Eric Halvorson (drums) and special guest, trumpeter Benny Benack III. Direction is by Lina Koutrakos.
The songs of Yesterdays transcend the era in which they were created, and the messages and the emotions they elicit are still powerful and relevant today. Mack performs selections from the Great American Songbook, including jazz standards and a tribute to Ella Fitzgerald. Composers include Jerome Kern, Duke Ellington, Chick Corea and The Beatles.
Mack is a native New Yorker with a lifelong passion for singing and performing. After a career in finance, she is thrilled to be back on stage. Mack was nominated for Best Female Vocalist for the 2022 MAC Awards. Her 2018 debut show, Nobody Else But Me, directed by Marilyn Maye, was also nominated for a MAC Award for Best Female Debut. Over the years, she has brought her combination of jazz and cabaret singing to performance venues around the country including New York’s most well-known clubs and Carnegie Hall.
