Marcus Goldhaber to Launch MOSTLY MARCUS Summer Residency at Symphony Space, 6/21
By: BWW News Desk Jun. 12, 2015
Following a recent sold out debut at Bar Thalia, Symphony Space's newest home for Jazz, acclaimed NYC vocalist-songwriter MARCUS GOLDHABER is returning to launch "MOSTLY MARCUS," a Sunday night Jazz Duo summer residency, backed only by a top jazz guitarist and joined each week by a different guest artist. The rotating group of jazz guitarists includes Hendrik Helmer (Wyclef Jean, Carly Simon, Duncan Sheik), John Hart (Jimmy Smith, James Moody), Ron Affif (Al Martino, Roger Williams) and Sean Harkness (Eileen Ivers, Julie Budd).
Opening June 21 with guest vocalist Alexis Cole and continuing through Aug. 30, "MOSTLY MARCUS" is designed to underscore Goldhaber's intimate approach to the American Songbook, which Jazz Weekly has called "lyrical and swingin'." and All About Jazz says is delivered "like a plate full of comfort food!" As Jonathan Schwartz (WNYC) says, "he is filled with ideas!"
Show times for each engagement are 7 and 8:30 p.m. Bar Thalia @ Symphony Space is located at 2537 Broadway (at 95th St.), New York City. For additional information, call 646.597.7340 or go to www.barthalia.org.
In the middle of the summer, Goldhaber will be making his debut at "Broadway's Supper Club," 54 Below, where he'll premiere a special show, "Free and Easy: Livin' on Swing Street," Saturday, July 25. Other summer tour highlights include Jazz at Pierson Park in Tarrytown, NY (Aug. 7); and an encore performance at World Café Live in Philadelphia (Aug. 9).
Marcus is touring behind his fourth album, A Lovely Way to Spend An Evening (Fallen Apple/The Orchard), released in the fall, which earned Honorable Mentions for Best Album of 2014 in the Quincy (MA) Patriot-Ledger and The Improper. The powerful, 12-track collection reintroduces some of Goldhaber's favorite standards alongside five originals.
