A MARCH IS CABARET MONTH EVENT
A MARCH IS CABARET MONTH EVENT
The Boston-based singer Shepley Metcalf who, last year, was the first American to record and perform a new trove of songs by the lyricist Fran Landesman, is bringing back her critically acclaimed Landesman tribute to THE METROPOLITAN ROOM (34 West 22nd Street, NYC - 212-206-0440) for an exclusive engagement in March. "Something Irresistible," featuring songs by Landesman and the British jazz composer Simon Wallace, performs Sunday March 20th at 4:00 pm. She is backed by her music director and arranger Ron Roy on piano, Chris Rathbun on bass and Gene Roma on drums. The show includes 15 new songs from the mercurial tunesmith who withdrew to London in the mid-60's represent a stunning expansion of her discography, which, in recent decades has had very few additions. Landesman is best known for her widely admired standards "Spring Can Really Hang You Up the Most," and "The Ballad of the Sad Young Men." There is a $20 cover plus a 2-drink minimum.
