Highly acclaimed New York Vocalist Steven Maglio, greatly regarded for his renditions of songs popularized by Frank Sinatra, is set to release his latest CD titled "Sinatra en Bossa Nova" on November 1, 2015.

As a longtime fan of Mr. Sinatra and the Bossa Nova genre, Mr. Maglio is releasing this CD as a respectful and entertaining tribute to both.

"I've been enjoying every moment in the studio producing this CD," says Mr. Maglio. "These 12 songs are favorites of many Sinatra fans,
and performing them bossa nova style has been a joy. Each time I sing them I think of Frank Sinatra, and his influence as an everlasting great musical artist. With what would be his 100th birthday approaching on December 12th, it is a real honor to release this CD as a tribute to his legacy."

Mr. Maglio is accompanied by: Jim West (Piano), Tony Montalbo (Bass), Matt Finck (Guitar), John Ruta (Tenor Saxophone & Flute), and Jay Dittamo (Drums & Additional Instrumentation). The CD was recorded, mixed and mastered by Jay Dittamo at The Cave Studio in Waldwick, NJ. Executive Producer is Steven Maglio, Inc., Produced by Jay Dittamo & Jim West; and Arranged by Jim West.

Earlier this year, Mr. Maglio released his CD "You Belong To Me", a heartfelt collection of romantic and touching tunes including "Good Morning Heartache," "Ain't Misbehaving," "Skylark," and "The Party's Over," all of which Frank Sinatra surprisingly never recorded. A very special thank you to producer Chuck Granata of Sirius-XM - Siriusly Sinatra, for his gracious guidance in selecting songs for the CD. Various tunes from the CD were aired on WHLI Radio and other jazz and internet radio stations.

His previous CD "Songs for Sinatra Lovers!" includes eleven Sinatra hits, featuring favorites such as "Come Dance With Me," You Make Me Feel So Young," and "Nancy" (accompaniment by famed guitarist Bucky Pizzarelli.)

Many noteworthy personalities have commented about Steven Maglio's distinctive vocal gift. Talented actor Tony Danza remarked after hearing Steven sing at a Patsy's Sinatra bash, "I like Steven's singing because he pays attention to those minor details that make a song popular, and the puts those details into his own renditions. That's one of the marks of a great singer." Michael Dale of Broadwayworld.com noted, "What's most impressive about Steven Maglio is that even while tributing a singer he so obviously admires, he manages to make the evening his own. You may walk in because of Frank Sinatra, but you'll leave with an appreciation for a terrific entertainer named Steven Maglio." Sidney Zion, New York Daily News columnist and friend of Frank Sinatra reported, "If Frank Sinatra could have seen the show you just did, you would be the one he'd choose to continue singing his songs."

Steven Maglio has appeared as a guest vocalist with Deana Martin (in the Deana Martin Variety Show conducted by Vincent Falcone) as well as the main attraction in venues such as The Rainbow Room, The Blue Note, The Sands Hotel, The Paris Hotel and so many others.

Every December Mr. Maglio delivers a special performance at Sinatra's favorite restaurant, Patsy's Italian Restaurant (236 West 56th Street, NYC), as Chef Sal Scognamillo holds his very special annual celebratory luncheon to honor Frank Sinatra's birthday, which attracts an array of celebrities and Sinatra fans.

Mr. Maglio's CD's are available via CD Baby, Amazon, CD Universe, iTunes.
