Kenyon Phillips Joins SHIVERS & STRINGS: THE UNKINDNESS at Feinstein's/54 Below

Singer, songwriter, and performance artist Kenyon Phillips (Unisex Salon, The Life and Death of Kenyon Phillips) will join as a special guest in Mackenzie Shivers' FEINSTEIN'S/54 BELOW debut "Shivers & Strings: The Unkindness," playing for one night only at the famed Broadway supper club on Thursday, February 27th at 9:30PM.

Following a series of sold-out performances at Joe's Pub and The Box, Phillips launched his wildly successful improvisational variety series "Unisex Salon with Kenyon Phillips" at Joe's Pub in 2017, a show anchored by his orchestral rock band The Ladies in Waiting in which Shivers acted as band leader and musical director. He is thrilled to team back up with Shivers, who will perform her critically acclaimed album The Unkindness alongside a string quartet and upright bass.

Featuring the talents of bassist Yuka Tadano (Smokey Joe's Café, The Lightning Thief), multi-instrumentalists Sarah Elizabeth Haines (Hamilton, Natasha, Pierre & the Great Comet of 1812) and Claire Wellin (Once), violinist Camellia Hartman, cellist Jon Chen, and Shivers herself on piano and vocals, the evening is sure to allure and charm each listener, pulling them into a stunning musical terrain.

Mackenzie Shivers in "Shivers & Strings: The Unkindness" plays Feinstein's/54 Below (254 West 54th Street) February 27th at 9:30PM. There is a $25-$35 cover charge and $25 food and beverage minimum. Tickets and information are available at www.54Below.com. Tickets on the day of performance after 4:00 are only available by calling (646) 476-3551.

Mackenzie Shivers began writing music when she was four years old and started piano lessons when she was five. In her songwriting, she underpins her classical training with an emotional essence that blossom together like bright buds as they bloom atop a proud and prolific tree. Shivers released her first album Neverland in 2014 followed by two EPs: Living in My Head (2016) and Ravens (2017). In her latest album The Unkindness, she invites you into a realm where you can escape, dream, grieve, believe, and even dance. Shivers is featured as a producer on the album, released February 2019, and it was mastered, engineered, and mixed by Kevin Salem, who has worked with Rachael Yamagata, Bat for Lashes, and Valerie June.
