SUMMARY:Rickie Lee Jones
DESCRIPTION:There will be no dinner service during this show. Dinner service will end at 7PM. \n  \n“originality\, intimacy\, and volcanic expressiveness” – Boston Globe\n  \nRickie Lee Jones is an American musician\, storyteller\, two-time Grammy winner and eight-time nominee. Here\, she has been inspiring pop culture for decades\, beginning with her star-making self-titled debut and the seminal Pirates. Moreover\, The New Yorker named her the “premiere song-stylist and songwriter of her generation”. Also\, Time magazine called her “The Duchess of Coolsville”. \nJones released her Grammy-nominated album Pieces of Treasure in 2023\, a reunion with Russ Titelman. There\, Russ produced her first two records. Additionally\, Jones’ celebrated 2021 memoir Last Chance Texaco was named Book of the Year by MOJO. Then\, it made Best of Year lists by NPR\, Pitchfork\, and many more. The Independent writes\, “There has always been something defiant about Rickie Lee Jones… a voice from a dream\, elusive yet familiar\, transcendent\, a messenger from another place.” \nRecommended for fans of Joni Mitchell\, Edie Brickell\, Randy Newman and The Lounge Lizards.

SUMMARY:Rachael & Vilray
DESCRIPTION:“tunes that echo the feel of standards\, without dipping into a single musical or lyrical cliché.” – Downbeat\n  \nBrooklyn-based duo Rachael & Vilray have achieved a certain timeless quality with their singular take on traditional pop. There\, they have accomplished this since their 2015 formation. Rooted in the language of an earlier age\, their songs transcend nostalgia with wit and a flair for the theatrical. On their third album\, 2025’s West of Broadway\, vocalist Rachael Price (also of Lake Street Dive) and guitarist/singer/songwriter Vilray evolve. Moreover\, they shed their music’s previous dreaminess to achieve a refreshing angularity built on left-of-center instrumentation. For example\, vibraphone and alto saxophone coast above the moody strains of baritone sax and trombone. Thus\, West of Broadway unfolds in a series of sharply drawn vignettes inspired by a recent fascination with classic musicals. Here\, they bring their luminous vocals to offbeat tales of love and heartache along city streets. \nFurthermore\, West of Broadway took shape with renowned musicians like saxophonist Steve Wilson (formerly of Chick Corea’s Origin sextet). Additionally\, drummer John Riley (Miles Davis\, Dizzy Gillespie). Over the course of ten lush and effervescent tracks\, the album delivers standouts like “Love Comes Around”. Here\, this joyously romantic piece set the direction for the LP’s West Coast jazz-inspired aesthetic. Also\, “My Key to Gramercy Park”\, a fantastically salty number narrated by a well-to-do character. They live in lonely suspicion of all those who covet their key to the notoriously exclusive private park. Further\, “Off Broadway”\, where golden-voiced comedian Stephen Colbert joins in for what the duo dubs an “oddly grumpy anti-Broadway screed”. The album comes to life in the colorful detail and extravagant personality of Rachael & Vilray’s storytelling. West of Broadway ultimately immerses the audience in an exquisitely out-of-time vision of their beloved New York City. \nRecommended for fans of Madeleine Peyroux\, Stella Cole\, Cyrille Aimée and Lake Street Dive. \n \n
