Broadway Performers to Join Kathryn Francisco and Bassist Nick West On Joint Birthday Show

Singer/Songwriter/Actor Kathryn Francisco ("The Wild Party"and season ten winner of "So You Think You Can Belt") and bassist Nick West are coming together for a joint birthday show where they will be joined by Broadway performers, and some of the greatest up and coming recording artists in a night planned to blow the roof off of The West End Lounge. It will be a truly epic night of full band live music: complete with originals, mashups, funky jazz fusion, and uniquely arranged covers of everything from Beyonce to Broadway to Bruno Mars.

"Nick and I first met back in 2013 when we joined the same cover band, and since then we've become besties through a shared love of craft beer, live music, and ramen burgers," jokes Francisco.

"I met Kathryn and Nick through Kathryn competing in So You Think You Can Belt season ten. I was instantly blown away by the talent, huge hearts, and sheer love of music that both of them have," says producer Peter Dunn. "They are both beasts in what they do, and this show is going to simply be the best live music happening on Tuesday July 31st with THE best talent. Which is exactly what these two superstars deserve."

The evening will feature special guest performances by Brittany Dorazio, Charlie Duncan, Peter Dunn (GAYS: The Series, So You Think You Can Belt, etc), Adelaide James, Angelica Maria, Jake McKenna (Wicked / Frozen), Meg McWhorter (The Last Five Years), Melissa Modifer (Letters from War), Jevares Myrick (The Book of Mormon), Ronve O'Daniel, Samantha Parrish (Teeth), pop recording artist Morgan Reilly, Tavia Rivee (Cirque de Soliel), Emily Schultheis (Wicked), Amber Tatum, Nya Trysha (Motown) and Natalie Weiss (Everyday Rapture, Wicked, Les Miserables)

"What truly thrills me the most is the insane talent that has agreed to be a part of our show. The lineup includes a stunningly talented group of musicians and singers that I am so grateful to call my friends," says Kathryn. "People who have influenced, inspired, and helped mold me into the performer I am today. I can think of no better way to ring in a birthday than jamming out with the people I love and admire the most."

Tickets - Suggested Donation $10 for the band
