Jenn Lederer and Elliot Roth, "Anthems"
Pittsburgh natives' Jenn Lederer and Elliot Roth bring their bold lyrics and soulful vocals to the steel city for a one night only event; debuting new music from their upcoming release, Anthems. Composer/pianist/vocalist and MAC award winner Elliot Roth with his 'silky smooth voice' (New York Times) hails from New York's prestigious Manhattan School of Music's Jazz Arts program and has made a name for himself in the big apple as a pianist, jazz vocalist and personality; headlining at such venues as Birdland, The Living Room, Manhattan Theater Source, and the legendary Oak Room at the Algonquin hotel (most recently seen in Off-Broadway's "Our Sinatra"). Vocalist and talent manager Jenn Lederer (talent featured on Law&Order: SVU, HBO's Boardwalk Empire, and others) finds her inspiration from encouraging and motivating others to do what they truly love; she has also made a name for herself in NYC with her riveting stage command and powerhouse vocals. Jenn has been collaborating with Elliot since their sold out limited engagement of their original New York debut tour de force, "MidTwenties'. Join them at this one night only concert as they present to you a roof raising night of jazz, funk and R&B originals, with full band...this is an event that you do not want to miss.
