NYC: CHARLOTTE PATTON: CELEBRATING MEN (BLESS THEIR HEARTS)

She's been married and not. She's had serious relationships, flings, and romances with men of all ages (but mostly younger). She's experienced all the charms, foibles, and idiosyncrasies of the opposite sex - and loves them anyway. Now, actress and comedian Charlotte Patton will bring all of that worldly wisdom to her sensual, provocative, and playful new cabaret show "Celebrating Men (Bless Their Hearts)," to THE METROPOLITAN ROOM (34 West 22nd Street, NYC - 212-206-0440) for four performances: Thursday, May 28th at 9:30 pm; Monday, June 29th at 9:30 pm; Friday, July 31st at 7:00 pm; and Thursday, August 20th at 7:00 pm. Patton's show is Directed by Award-winning cabaret performer Karen Oberlin with Musical Direction by MAC Award winner Barry Levitt. Recent MAC Award winner Tom Hubbard is on bass. Peter Napolitano contributes as Creative Consultant. This show celebrates men with all their foibles and idiocyncrasies set to the music of Peggy Lee, Jimmy McHugh, Harry Nilsson and many others. There is a $20 cover plus a 2-drink minimum.

NYC: H2 HARKNESS-HERRIOTT JAZZ DUO AT BIRDLAND

H2, the Harkness-Herriott Jazz Duo performs at BIRDLAND (315 West 44th Street, NYC - 212-581-3080) on Thursday, May 28th at 6:00 pm. Sean Harkness and Mike Herriott met while touring Japan in 2008. They have been close musical partners and the best of friends ever since. This friendship has brought with it two highly-acclaimed recordings and many live performances that have enchanted audiences in Canada and the United States. Their first album, "FlightsVol.1", consists entirely of original compositions by Harkness and Herriott and has been receiving radio airplay across Canada and the U.S. since its release in 2010. With guests MarkMiller, Kevin Coady, and Jim Vivian, "FlightsVol.1" is a collection of tunes that will suit all tastes and please every ear. In 2011, Harkness-Herriott released their second album entitled "Home for the Holidays". A Christmas album with a different touch, this recording consists of older traditional seasonal favourites rather the more modern and conventional Christmas standards. Songs like "Angels We Have Heard on High" and "Good King Wenceslas" get the special Harkness-Herriott treatment with odd rhythmic meters, distinct jazz grooves, and a whole new sound. Winner of the 2012 "Best Recording" MAC Award (NYC), "Home for the Holidays" has been featured on jazz radio shows across North America. Harkness-Herriott have performed at jazz festivals and clubs across Canada and at the famed Iridium, Metropolitan Room, and Birdland Jazz Club in NYC There is a $25 cover plus a $10 food/drink minimum.
