NYC: BARB JUNGR BRINGS "MAN IN A LONG BLACK COAT" TO NYC
Celebrated singer Barb Jungr returns to NYC from London for her ninth engagement atTHE METROPOLITAN ROOM (34 West 22nd Street, NYC - 212-206-0440) with 10 performances from October 18th through 29th. Jungr presents the New York premiere of "Man in the Long Black Coat," her first live show in New York devoted entirely to the music of Bob Dylan. Performances are Tuesdays through Saturdays, October 18th through 22nd & 25th through 29th. All shows are at 7:00 pm. Jungr began making Dylan waves when she released her first Dylan compilation, "Every Grain of Sand," with Linn Records in 2002. As she added other American rockers to her repertoire, Jungr became a major draw in New York and internationally for credibly adding new names to the Great American Songbook. Jungr championed the likes of Bruce Springsteen, Leonard Cohen, David Byrne, Neil Diamond, Hank Williams and Elvis Presley, to name a few. She recently released a brand new compilation CD (also from Linn Records) of songs recorded since "Every Grain of Sand," with four newly recorded tracks. Jungr's live CD release U.S. tour began at THE RRAZZ ROOM in San Francisco on October 10th, before coming to New York. Accompanying Jungr on piano for her U.S. tour is the New York-based Tracy Stark. A 2008 Nightlife Award-winner (outstanding cabaret vocalist), Jungr was a fixture in London's alternative cabaret scene in the late 70's (when she was a member of the cult vocal group The Three Courgettes, and half of Jungr and Parker). She launched her solo career in 1997, and her solo recordings date back "Durga Rising" (1997) and "Bare" (1999). There is a $25 cover plus a 2-drink minimum.
