HOTLINE MEMBER CABARET EVENT TONIGHT IN NYC: KAREN OBERLIN: HIS AIM IS TRUE; THE SINGULAR SONGS OF ELVIS COSTELLO
Karen Oberlin,a fan of Elvis Costello since her early teens, when his young angst, disillusionment and vulnerable heart seemed perfectly in synch with her own, brings her show "His Aim Is True: The Singular Songs Of Elvis Costello' to STAGE 72 (158 West 72nd Street, NYC - 212-362-2590) on Thursdays, June 4th, 18th & 25th at 7:00 pm. One of the most versatile and prolific contemporary artists, over the years Elvis has delved into innumerable genres and styles with passion and intelligence, including classical, jazz and pop. His many collaborative partners have included Burt Bacharach, the Brodsky String Quartet, Paul McCartney, Bill Frisell and the Jazz Passengers. For her new show, Karen brings forth a collection of material from her more than 30 years of following his eclectic, fascinating career to express some of the most intriguing elements of this unique singer/songwriter's work and life. Tedd Firth serves as musical director, and they will be joined by Sean Harkness on guitar and Steve Doyle on bass. Karen believes that if one takes a close and discerning look, the so-called Great American Songbook is still being written. She is a recipient of the Mabel Mercer Foundation's Donald F. Smith Award, along with Bistro, Nightlife and multiple MAC awards, and an honorary doctorate in music. Her recordings are often featured on Jonathan Schwartz's radio show and she has headlined at all the major New York nightclub venues, including the Algonquin's Oak Room, Feinstein's at the Regency, the Cafe Carlyle, Birdland, Kitano and 54 Below. She has performed at concert halls such as Carnegie Hall, Jazz at Lincoln Center, The Town Hall and Caramoor, and her performances take her all over the world, including her annual engagements in London. There is a $2 cover plus a 2-drink minimum.
