Description

Don’t miss these two powerhouse performers as they bring the music of one of America’s most treasured songwriters to the Metropolitan Room. Blackhurst & Stritch have mined the Carmichael catalogue to unearth lesser-known gems as well as beloved treasures such as “Skylark,” Georgia On My Mind,” and “Star Dust.”

Klea Blackhurst took New York by storm with her acclaimed tribute to Ethel Merman, Everything the Traffic Will Allow. Billy Stritch is an award-winning composer, arranger, vocalist and jazz pianist. Their first artistic collaboration, Dreaming of A Song: The Music of Hoagy Carmichael, was recorded and released on Ghostlight Records in June.
