Kevin Scott Hall Holds Book Launch March 24th

MARCH IS CABARET MONTH

The first time I met Kevin Scott Hall was in the piano bar at EIGHTY EIGHT'S - soon after the club opened. He would drop by with another singer, a young lady who's name I can't remember, and together they would sing a few songs, before moving on to another piano bar (there used to be at least 7 or 8 others in the Village alone at that time). That's a long time ago. Over the years since, in addition to singing, he's become a songwriter, producer, director, journalist and master teacher. Kevin now adds novelist to his long list of accomplishments! His first novel, "Off the Charts!" about a young man who, having just received an inheritance, attempts to resurrect a one-hit-wonder dance diva's singing career. There will be a Book Launch Party at UNCLE CHARLIE'S (139 East 45th Street 2nd Floor, NYC - 212-661-9097 - ) on Wednesday, March 24th, from 6:00 to 9:00 pm. Hall will read from the novel and sign copies. He may even sing a few tunes with his friend Clare Cooper, who will be playing piano in the lounge.
