| Marcus Goldhaber at the Cutting Room Marcus Goldhaber will perform at the Cutting Room on June 1st. He is a welcome addition to the music world with a smooth and intimate approach to straight-ahead jazz. Marcus sings with comfortable ease and though his sound has been compared to that of John Pizzarelli, Chet Baker and a young Frank Sinatra, he definitely has a unique style that is rooted in the beauty of a simple melody. Since June of 2005, he has played at many clubs in NYC, including: The Carnegie Club, Creole, The Lenox Lounge, Smoke, Cleopatra's Needle, The Ritz Carlton, Crobar, Vertigo, and the illustrious Friar's Club, of which he is a proud member. Marcus has given outdoor concerts at NYC's Worldwide Plaza and in Central Park and has most recently played at the AOL Time Warner Center. For the past year he has maintained residency in the jazz lounge at Penang (Upper West Side) on Sunday nights. Recently, Marcus spent the month of August in Upstate NY, singing a tribute to the music of Tony Bennett to sold out crowds. On his newest CD The Moment After, Marcus teams up with piano great Jon Davis (toured with Jaco Pastorius, Joe Henderson), Paul Gabrielson on bass (Mingus Big Band and Kingston Trio), Kyle Struve on drums (Frank Lacey, Walter Blanding), and Will Terrill also on drums (Benny Golson, recorded with Betty Carter). write your comments about the article :: © 2007 Jazz News :: home page |
