The Mark Winkler CD release party is set to be held on Thur., Sept. 8th Laurie Beechman Theatre
at 7PM

In a statement Mark Winkler says: "Join me for a celebration of my new CD, Sweet Spot. I will be backed by the fantastic Jeb Patton Quartet. My CD debuted at #25 on the Jazz Week Charts and there are articles on me in Jazz Times, Cabaret Scenes and LA Jazz Scene."

Sweet Spot, the latest release from West Coast cool jazz vocalist Mark Winkler,spotlights the multitalented singer/songwriter's smooth swinging voice and hip insightful lyrics on what may well be the critically acclaimed song man's best outing yet. Winkler, who has earned an abundance of accolades throughout a thirty plus year career, during which he's recorded numerous albums as a leader, while writing dozens of songs that have been recorded by artists ranging from Bob Dorough, Dianne Reeves and Randy Crawfordto Claire Martin, Liza Minnelli and Lea Salonga. Noted for his well toned baritone, which has cast him as an heir apparent to his primary influence Mark Murphy, as well as his witty sophisticated lyrics that have been astutely described in Jazz Times as possessing the urbanity of Cole Porter and drollness of Dave Frishberg, Winkler dishes out listeners a healthy dose of both on the date's dozen tracks.
