Ben Jones Brings LET ME BE FRANK to 54 Below Next Month

54 Below will present Ben Jones in Let Me Be Frank on March 10, 2024. After a sold-out performance at the Birdland Jazz Club in December, Ben Jones brings this special encore performance to 54 Below.

Award-winning vocalist Ben Jones and legendary pianist, composer and music director Ron Abel combine their considerable talent for an evening of side-splitting laughs and unbelievable music celebrating the deep catalog of Frank Sinatra. As a bonus, March 10th is Ron Abel’s birthday. Come celebrate with Ben, Ron and the rest of the band!

Let Me Be Frank includes swinging Sinatra standards and lush blue-eyed ballads from the songbooks of Cy Coleman, Duke Ellington, Harold Arlen, Johnny Mercer, Jacques Brel, and Antonio Carlos Jobim. In this hilarious followup to Ben’s first two “Jaw-Dropping” (BroadwayWorld) solo shows–I Think I’m in Love and I Think We Should See Other People–Ben confronts Frank truths about marriage, family and a life in the entertainment industry.

The band for this performance includes 4 incredible New York musicians–Yuka Tadano (bass), Sean Harkness (guitar), and Ray Marchica (drums).

Jones and Abel have brought their magic to stages all over the world and together bring an incredible depth and originality to Sinatra’s hits and deep cuts alike. It’s a joyful presentation of some of the best music of the 20th century and an evening you won’t want to miss!
