Jess Clinton and Georgia Sackler Join SHIVERS & STRINGS: THE UNKINDNESS at Feinstein's/54 Below

Celebrated singer/songwriters and performers Jess Clinton (Unisex Salon) and Georgia Sackler (Pillars of New York) will join as a special guests in Mackenzie Shivers' FEINSTEIN'S/54 BELOW debut "Shivers & Strings: The Unkindness," playing for one night only at the famed Broadway supper club on Thursday, February 27th at 9:30PM.

Sackler's classical voice background has carried her into a variety of different genres, allowing a seamless segue into formal musical theatre training and exploration of her own creative muscles as a singer/songwriter. Her original music has been featured in the webseries "When Romeo Met Juliet" by Audrey Kurtz, as well as the short film, "WINK" by Olivia Von Opel. Her debut EP Where Once Grew Green was released last year.

Shape-shifting soprano Jess Clinton seamlessly shifts from bell-tone purities to sultry secrecies, her voice is the crowning jewel of her introspective tapestry of acoustically-driven song. Bringing both her serious expertise and jocular personality to stage and studio, Clinton uses her music to communicate the most intimate parts of herself, re-defining what it means to be a woman, a creator, and the volumes in which she can speak her truth. Her album Real Glass Heart was released July 2019.

Shivers, who will perform her critically acclaimed album The Unkindness alongside a string quartet and upright bass, will also be joined by special guest Kenyon Phillips (Unisex Salon, The Life and Death of Kenyon Phillips), bassist Yuka Tadano (Smokey Joe's Café, The Lightning Thief), multi-instrumentalists Sarah Elizabeth Haines (Hamilton, Natasha, Pierre & the Great Comet of 1812) and Claire Wellin (Once), violinist Camellia Hartman, cellist Jon Chen. With Shivers herself on piano and vocals, the evening is sure to allure and charm each listener, pulling them into a stunning musical terrain.
