She's headlined at The Cafe Carlyle, opened for Lou Reed at Carnegie Hall, sung Woody Allen movie songs at the Hollywood Bowl, performed on A Prairie Home Companion, duetted with Eartha Kitt, sang onscreen in the film PS I Love You, and released four wildly acclaimed albums of original music. Her songs have been heard on the TV shows Boardwalk Empire, Weeds, Grey's Anatomy, NCIS, Privileged and more. There is a $25-$55 cover plus a $12 food/drink minimum.
