Photo Coverage: Cutting Room Hosts SinatraThon

On Saturday May 9, the Cutting Room was the scene of the SinatraThon - billed as "day long (14 hour) marathon celebration of the Man and his Music." Check out photos from the show below!

On the premise that no ordinary tribute show could do justice to one of the most prolific and influential careers in American music, co-curators Will Friedwald and Cary Hoffman included no less than eight hours of live performances in the day, featuring nearly three-dozen different singers. The centerpiece of the marathon was Cary Hoffman's long-running MY SINATRA, a very personal exploration of one man's lifelong obsession with the Chairman of the Board, featuring an 11-piece big band. Following Cary's 80-minute show, there was an all-star revue of additional singers working with pianist Tex Arnold and the big band: Christian McBride, Buster Poindexter, Allan Harris, Bryan Anthony, Deborah Silver, Duchess, Amy Cervini,Milissa Stylianou, Hilary Gardner, Carole Bufford, Barbara Fasano, Eric Comstock and special surprise guest Bill Charlap.
