The pair are as entertaining as they are musically savvy. These award-winning artists celebrate their 10th wedding anniversary later this summer, so expect lots of laughs and love songs. Sultry, swinging and surprising, they'll turn Sunday supper at Birdland into a fabulous party where the stories are as great as the music.

They were among the last performers to headline at the Algonquin Hotel's legendary Oak Room Supper Club. There is a $30 cover plus a $10 food/drink minimum.
