THE GREEN ROOM 42 - Broadway's newest intimate concert venue - will present Hilary Kole in "Something Old, Something New" on Thursday, September 27 at 8:30 PM. An authentic talent not to be missed, Kole is backed by a brilliant jazz quartet featuring pianist Adam Birnbaum, bassist Paul Gill, drummer Aaron Kimmel, and guitarist John Hart. She unlocks new meaning in old standards and little heard art songs, as well as her infectious and emotionally-compelling new pop single "Moon Song," which she co-wrote with celebrated producer, singer and songwriter Devin Bing.
In addition to performing at famed Manhattan venues like The Town Hall, Birdland, Blue Note, Iridium, 54 Below, Jazz at Lincoln Center and Carnegie Hall with Michael Feinstein and The New York Pops, she made her concert-hall debut at Lincoln Center as part of the "American Songbook Series." In 2007, she appeared at Carnegie Hall in a tribute to Oscar Peterson, and reprised that performance in January 2008 at the Canadian Memorial to Dr. Peterson at Thompson Hall alongside Quincy Jones, Herbie Hancock and Nancy Wilson. Hilary debuted at the Oak Room at the Algonquin Hotel as the co-writer and star of the critically acclaimed, Off-Broadway revues Our Sinatra and Singing Astaire.
Globally, she has headlined at the Umbria Jazz Festival, the Montreal Jazz Festival, the Nairn Jazz Festival in Scotland, and the Cotton Club and Blue Note in Japan. In 2016, upon releasing The Judy Garland Project, she toured the U.S. and Asia, performing Garland's iconic repertoire with a small ensemble group and orchestras. Hilary is currently writing a new show for orchestra based on the top female composers of the past half century, from Peggy Lee to Alanis Morissette and Heart. Her discography also includes the John Pizzarelli-produced Haunted Heart (2009); You Are There (2010), featuring vocal piano duets with legendary jazz pianists Dave Brubeck, Michel Legrand, Benny Green, Cedar Walton, Hank Jones and others; and the deeply personal A Self-Portrait (2014), which included interpretations of contemporary pop classics from the rock era.
