On Thursday-Sunday this week at 5:30pm ET and then for 72hours following the livestream, Birdland presents it’s 13th annual Swinging Birdland Christmas.
The performers are again Birdland regulars Billy Stritch, Jim Caruso, and Klea Blackhurst. In the tradition of beloved seasonal specials, Blackhurst, Caruso and Stritch will perform swinging arrangements of “Christmas Waltz,” Kay Thompson’s “Holiday Season,” “Sleigh Ride,” “I’ve Got My Love To Keep Me Warm,” “Snow,” and “It Happened In Sun Valley,” among other favourites.
The show will also include a musical tribute to Birdland regular, the late Freddy Cole, who was also a holiday tradition! The singers will be joined by Steve Doyle on bass and Daniel Glass on drums.
