| Sam Fazio Returns to Feinstein's/54 Below Sam Fazio blends the type of voice that would sound good on Broadway with an overt Sinatra influence in what is a winning combination...he is not your usual jazz singer!" - Brad Walseth, Jazz Chicago Chicago-based vocalist Sam Fazio returns to Manhattan's Feinstein's/54 Below for a special evening on October 8th at 9:30pm. He will be accompanied by pianist Chris White and bassist George DeLancey. Sam's repertoire includes a unique mix of American standards, swing tunes and pop classics. His heartfelt interpretations bring new life to the standards and showcase his current, yet classic style. Sam's phrasing and storytelling is said to be reminiscent of the great Sinatra at his best-although Sam is definitely his own man. In this new show, New York State of Mind, Sam will celebrate the people, places, and performers who make New York City one of the greatest cities in the world. Sam will perform songs from Billy Strayhorn to Billy Joel, and everything in between - all in Sam's fresh, yet classic style. Hear songs like Take the A Train, Manhattan, How About You and of course, New York State of Mind. Sam can be seen regularly at many venues throughout the Chicagoland area, including the Coq d'Or at the historic Drake Hotel. Sam has performed at legendary jazz clubs, including Andy's, Cliff Bell's Green Mill, Pete Miller's and Jazz Showcase. Sam has also performed at many festivals and performing arts centers across the country. In summer 2012, Sam performed for a full house at Feinstein's at the Loews Regency and in fall 2014 at 54 Below. Musical direction by Chris White.
