British singer-pianist Anthony Strong will return to the US this June with a big band show at the Playboy Jazz Festival in Los Angeles on Sunday June 12.

Anthony's debut show at the Hollywood Bowl will be followed by club dates at Jazz Alley (Portland), Jimmy Mak's (Seattle), Scullers (Boston) & Joe's Pub (New York). He has previously been featured on NPR in an hour-long special with Michael Feinstein and reached #1 on the iTunes Jazz Charts.

Anthony was signed by iconic French label Naïve in 2013 (following an impressive opening set for B.B. King in Paris) and has since toured more than 150 shows around Europe, including some of the biggest jazz festivals on the continent. Strong will be playing a mixture of feel-good music from his last two albums, taking in both the Great American Songbook and original songs.
