He has performed with rave reviews in New York City, Paris and London. It is our pleasure to announce Eric Yves Garcia will come to Ten Chimneys for the first time Saturday, March 19th at 7 p.m.
Mr. Garcia's performance will feature songs from the Great American Songbook with selections reflecting the rigor and melancholy of his life, love, and loss in the city, all while using his self-deprecating humor and cool affability to keep everything buoyant and entertaining.
The Wall Street Journal's Will Friedwald wrote, "He puts everything together in a highly personal, intensely intimate fashion that allows the songs to come to us through him in a way that's by turns incredibly moving and very funny - often both at the same time."
Eric Yves Garcia comes to Ten Chimneys with several musical accolades, including the 2014 Margaret Whiting Award presented at Jazz at Lincoln Center. He received the 2014 Bistro Award for Outstanding Singer/Instrumentalist.
His career highlights include the Margaret Whiting Birthday Tribute at Carnegie Hall, the Wall-to-Wall concert series at Symphony Space and multiple engagements at the famous Carlyle Hotel in Manhattan. Mr. Garcia's solo show, "One Night Standards," garnered praise in the New York Times and Wall Street Journal, and was featured in the Brownsville Concert Series in the Midwest. Internationally, Mr. Garcia enjoyed two weeklong runs at Club Raye in Paris, and a highly lauded debut in London at The Crazy Coqs. He is a graduate of Fordham University at Lincoln Center's theatre department, an audiobook narrator and provides music for Ronald McDonald House charity events.
Ten Chimneys Foundation President & CEO, Randy Bryant, says having a cabaret gem, like Eric Yves Garcia, honors the rising artistic talent valued by Alfred Lunt and Lynn Fontanne.
Tickets to the March 19th performance are $75, which includes light hors d'oeuvres and a beverage. For more information or to reserve your seat, please ring (262) 968-4110.
