Photo Flash: Jim Caruso, Jane Monheit & Billy Stritch Bring HOLLYWOODLAND to Las Vegas
On October 23 and 24, singers Jane Monheit, Jim Caruso and singer/pianist/arranger Billy Stritch performed their "HOLLYWOODLAND: Songs From The Silver Screen" at the beautiful Cabaret Jazz Room at the Smith Center in Las Vegas.
A year ago, singers Jane Monheit, Jim Caruso and singer/pianist/arranger Billy Stritch joined forces to create HOLLYWOODLAND: Songs From The Silver Screen. Material includes beloved songs like "Pennies From Heaven," "Let's Misbehave," "Over The Rainbow," "If I Only Had A Brain," "Whistle While You Work," "It Happened In Sun Valley" and a tribute to the genius of Fred Astaire. The trio was accompanied by Rick Montalbano on drums and Neal Miner on bass.
Jane Monheit, Jim Caruso and Billy Stritch had such a great time working together in the Jazz at Lincoln Center concert series, and were thrilled when the Manhattan music room Birdland offered them a weeklong booking on the historic stage. Since then, they have performed the show in several other venues. The trio brings a wealth of musical experience to HOLLYWOODLAND, and they love performing tightly harmonized swing arrangements and lush ballads from the 30's, 40's and 50's.
