By: Tyler Peterson Jan. 21, 2015

KAREN WYMAN - the celebrated pop/jazz vocalist currently celebrating a renaissance since her days performing on "The Ed Sullivan Show" and "The Dean Martin Show" - will return to The Metropolitan Room on Saturday, January 31 at 7:00 PM. Her engagement at the venue last year was named a "Critic's Pick" by Time Out New York and called "a compelling concert and a totally-inspiring comeback performance" by BroadwayWorld.com. The new evening of music will feature timeless pop standards by Cole Porter, Jule Styne and Harold Arlen, in addition to 1960's classics from The Beatles and Burt Bacharach and her Billboard-charting hit "Why Can't I Walk Away?" The show will feature music director John Oddo (Rosemary Clooney, Michael Feinstein, Linda Eder) on piano leading an all-star trio.

KAREN WYMAN became a national vocal sensation at the age of 16 in 1969, recording for Decca Records. The Bronx native sang on "The Dean Martin Show," "The Ed Sullivan Show," "The Tonight Show with Johnny Carson," and on variety programs hosted by Carol Burnett, Glen Campbell, Dick Cavett, David Frost, Merv Griffin and Mike Douglas. She performed in nightclubs and concert stages throughout the county for years and released albums and singles on MCA and Columbia Records, several arranged by Peter Matz.

Since her successful return to the stage after taking time to raise her family, she has performed at Jazz at Lincoln Center for the Mabel Mercer Foundation, "Wall to Wall Cabaret" at Symphony Space and concert venues like Birdland and 54 Below. She was given a Bistro Award for her acclaimed return to performing.
