NYC: RICK JENSEN, "TONIGHT, NEW YORK CITY"

NYC: RICK JENSEN, "TONIGHT, NEW YORK CITY"

Multiple MAC, BISTRO and GLAMA Award-winning songwriter, Rick Jensen will appear in a revue of his music at THE METROPOLITAN ROOM (34 West 22nd Street, NYC - 212-206-0440) for three performances on Saturdays, July 14th, 21st and 28th at 7:00 pm. The show is inspired by Jensen's recent song, "Tonight, New York City", and looks back on Jensen's 27 years as a working musician in Manhattan. Joining him will be vocalists Tanya Holt, Justin Ritchie and this year's Metro star winner, Marissa Mulder. The show is directed by Lina Koutrakos. Jensen's song "Go Ahead And Dream" was featured in the 2011 Ed Harris film, "That's What I Am", which was the centerpiece of the 2011 Santa Barbara International Film Festival. Other Jensen compositions that have become standards in the cabaret and nightclub scene in New York and coast to coast include "In Passing Years" and "Amanda Sang". Artists who have recorded Jensen's songs include Lee Lessack, Lina Koutrakos, and the late Nancy LaMott, and Jensen can be heard singing his own songs on his award-winning CD, "Spring Harvest". In all, Jensen's work has earned him five Manhattan Association of Cabaret and Clubs (MAC) Awards, two Bistro Awards, and two National Gay and Lesbian American Music (GLAMA) awards. There is a $20 cover plus a 2-drink minimum.
