DANIELLE GRABIANOWSKI - recent Bistro Award winner and 2010 MAC award nominee returns to the Metropolitan Room for a special encore performance of her debut show, "Old, New, Borrowed and Blues," Wednesday, April 7 at 7:30 PM. The show, which debuted at the Metropolitan Room late last year, features classics from the Great American Songbook ("Brother, Can You Spare a Dime, "Try A Little Tenderness"), new tunes from the likes of Regina Spektor, The Indigo Girls and Ray Lamontagne and, of course, the blues. The show is directed by award winning performer and director, Lennie Watts with Musical Direction by nightclub favorite and fellow 2010 MAC award nominee Nate Buccieri.

Danielle was recently awarded the Bistros Ira Eaker Special Achievement award given to an outstanding performer on the rise and has also been nominated for a MAC award in the best female cabaret debut category. She made her solo cabaret debut at the Metropolitan Room last year after coming in second in the Metropolitan Rooms Metrostar Talent Challenge where she was called, "one of those performers who can remind a listener of many predecessors, yet instantly seems newly-minted and already defiantly resists being fitted into anyone else's mold" by The Huffington Post. She was praised for her "arresting quality" and "unique vocal that seemed part Edith Piaf and part Janis Joplin" by TalkinBroadway.com and her "captivating sound, a disarming manner" by NitelifeExchange.com who claimed, "Danielle is a mix of sassy, sly and sweet...delicious dynamite."

Danielle Grabianowski is the 2008 1930's Idol and has performed with various theater companies around the country including the Georgia Shakespeare Festival, Bakerloo Theatre Project and Bigfork Summer Playhouse as well as in various readings and workshops of new musicals and plays in New York City.
