CABARET TONIGHT IN NYC: DANA FUCHS AT SUBCULTURE NYC

CABARET TONIGHT IN NYC: DANA FUCHS AT SUBCULTURE NYC

Actress, singer/songwriter and rocker Dana Fuchs will perform atSUBCULTURE NYC (45 Bleeker Street, NYC) on Friday, December 27th at 8:00 pm. Best known for her performances as Sadie in Across the Universe, and Janis Joplin in the off-Broadway musical Love, Janis, Dana will perform original material at SubCulture from her recently released album, Bliss Avenue, and more. Dana Fuchs is a phenomenon, a singer whose mesmerizing voice and presence has led critics to compare her to rock legends from Janis to Jagger. Dana's portrayal of "Sadie" in Sony Pictures' highly acclaimed Beatles' musical film Across the Universe has exposed her considerable talents to a wide, international audience. Raised in a small town in the swamps of Florida surrounded by soul, funk, rock and country, she was singing every Sunday in a small black Baptist choir by age 12. At 19 she headed north to New York to "sing the blues" alone and broke, ending up down and out on NYC's Lower East Side where she worked her way up through New York's City's gritty club scene, combining her deep southern music roots with her sometimes dark but always soulful stories of lost, ambivalent, and misplaced love. Her sold out club NYC shows led to Dana being cast as Janis Joplin in the hit off-Broadway musical show Love Janis. Her run there led her to renowned director Julie Taymor who cast her in Across the Universe. There is a $20-$30 cover.
