LOS ANGELES, CA: WESLA WHITFIELD & MIKE GREENSILL AT THE GARDENIA
Wesla Whitfield & Mike Greensill will perform at THE GARDENIA (7066 Santa Monica Boulevard, West Hollywood, CA - 323-467-7444) on Wednesday, April 1 at 9:00 pm. Their show "Sing For Your Supper: Best of the Great American Songbook". Wesla Whitfield inhabits that indeterminate zone where jazz and cabaret meet. Trained in classical music and opera, Whitfield has toiled for more than three decades to become one of the most gifted performers breathing life into that exquisite body of Broadway tunes, movie songs and Hit Parade numbers known collectively as the Great American Songbook. In 2006 Wesla and Mike moved to St Helena in Napa Valley but still spends much of their time in New York and San Francisco, working such noted rooms as the Algonquin Oak Room, The Rrazz Room, The Metropolitan Room and Joe's Pub at New York's Public Theater, Wesla has also appeared in concert at NY Town Hall, Avery Fisher and Carnegie Hall. In 1996 Wesla had the honor to perform at the White House for Hillary Clinton. With her deft sense of time and uncanny ability to connect with the emotional truth in a lyric, the jazz world has had no qualms about embracing her as one of its own. Working with pianist/arranger Mike Greensill, the two released their 19th recording 'Message From the Man In The Moon' in December of 2007. There is an $80 cover that includes all tax, tip dinner & show. CABARET HOTLINE ONLINE MEMBER EVENT

LONDON: HAROLD SANDITEN FLYIN' HIGH AT THE CRAZY COQS
Harold Sanditen, the suave and talented host of the Coqs' hugely popular Open Mic Night, is delighted to introduce his newest solo show, FLYIN' HIGH, ahead of its world tour, at THE CRAZY COQS AT BRASSERIE ZEDEL(20 Sherwood St, Piccadilly, London W1F 7ED - 020 7734 4888) on Tuesday, March 31st through Thursday, April 2nd. An intrepid traveller, having visited every continent except Antarctica, Sanditen finds the humour everywhere he goes, something that shines through in his performances. From Albuquerque to the Zambezi, with songs ranging from Bacharach and the Beatles to Jobim and Weill, this 65-stop world tour is packed with songs, laughs, exciting, new, jazz-infused arrangements and perhaps even a tear or two. Come find out who said "Bloody hell, mate! Aren'tcha gonna take me back to the tent and take advantage of me?!" Since bursting onto the jazz and cabaret scene in 2008, Sanditen has devised six cabaret shows in as many years and has played to packed houses from London to LA. Before finding his own voice, Harold spent 20 years as a theatre producer where he worked with actors ranging from Academy Award winners to complete up-and-comers. During these three shows, a "Live at The Crazy Coqs" CD will be recorded. This will be the first CD recorded in the venue for commercial release. Harold will be joined on stage by Michael Roulston on piano, Tom Mansi on bass and Jonathan Kitching on drums, as well as some very special guests, including Dame Janet Suzman, who makes her singing debut on March 31st & April 1st.
