Hilary Kole will celebrate the release of her new album on the Miranda Music label, The Judy Garland Project, at The Iridium on April 26. The song choices on this stunningly fresh collection of performances of songs from the well-worn repertoire of Judy Garland are based on Hilary's successful live performances of the Judy canon, her "Over The Rainbow" tribute concerts held the world over.

From there, she debuted at the Oak Room at the Algonquin Hotel as the co-writer and star of the critically acclaimed Off-Broadway reviews, "Our Sinatra," and "Singing Astaire." Hilary has also recorded with jazz legends Dave Brubeck, Hank Jones, and Michel LeGrand.
