Acclaimed vocalist Richard Cortez returns after a sold-out engagement to pay tribute to Frank Sinatra with an evening of hits and rare gems. Cortez's debut jazz album Mood Swings hit 1 million streams just three months after its release and has now surpassed 2 million, with Amazon Music listing his recording of You Don't Know What Love Is as one of the top jazz recordings of 2024. He has shared the bandstand with Sullivan Fortner, Peter Bernstein, Kyle Poole, Yasushi Nakamura, Nicole Glover, and Russell Hall.
