ANN HAMPTON CALLAWAY: HERE'S TO LIFE to Play Hamptons Summer Songbook By The Sea

Ann Hampton Callaway will brinig her new show Here's to Life to East Hampton's LTV Studios, Saturday, July 11, at 7:30 p.m., as part of the 2026 season of Hamptons Summer Songbook By the Sea.

In Here's to Life, Callaway dazzles with a night of gorgeous songs celebrating life's richness, despite challenges and because of them. She breathes wisdom and passion into songs of Harold Arlen, Cole Porter, Richard Rodgers, Alan and Marilyn Bergman, contemporary songwriters, and her own originals. Christopher Loudon of JazzTimes calls her the '...superbly intelligent, singularly creative pop-jazz stylist who can stand shoulder to shoulder with the likes of Streisand, Ronstadt, Shirley Horn, and Dianne Reeves...' Stephen Holden of The New York Times says, 'For sheer vocal beauty, no contemporary singer matches Ms. Callaway.'
