Singer and violinist Edmund Bagnell presents Home for the Holidays on Thursday, December 7 at 8:30 PM at Birdland. He will be joined on stage with actress and singer Kate Simone, with music director Mark Hartman on piano.
Through music and humor, Bagnell shares his heartfelt recipe for a perfectly imperfect holiday season. This new show will feature selections from his 2020 USA Today top-ranked holiday album, Christmas at Home, along with his original tunes.
Bagnell is a diverse artist, having performed as an actor, violinist, singer and 1st violinist and singer in the internationally touring string quartet Well Strung, which released three chart-topping albums in the classical crossover genre and performed live three times on the NBC’s “Today” show. As an actor, he was cast as Tobias Ragg during his senior year at NYU in the 1st National Tour of John Doyle’s staging of Sweeney Todd, which lead to a wide variety of acting roles in New York and across the country. In 2019, he premiered and toured internationally with his one man show, He Plays the Violin. This past summer, Bagnell debuted his second solo show, Happy Days Are Here Again, and in the fall released a new EP The Road, which includes original songs.
There is a $20-30 music charge and a $20 food and beverage minimum. For reservations, please call (212) 581-3080 or visit www.BirdlandJazz.com.
