The Triad and the Just A Piano Concert Series presents recording artist Jane Burbank in "A Tribute to Queens" on June 10 at 7pm. Celebrating a third CD release ("My Romance" currently available at JaneBurbank.com and soon on iTunes), Ms. Burbank's vocal abilities have been critically acclaimed with such quotes as "...Polished...Gorgeous voice..." from the New York Post and many other publications.

In "A Tribute to Queens" Ms. Burbank will sing songs to piano accompaniment made popular by many of our most influential musical "queens," such as Diana Ross, Barbra Streisand, Aretha Franklin and Elton John. Performing during International Gay Pride Month, Ms. Burbank will donate a portion of her proceeds to Marriage Equality New York - in tribute to the entire lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender community, with a special wink, in deliberate double entendre, to the "queens."

The evening features Broadway's Daniel Weiss whom New York audiences remember as pianist/conductor of RENT and most recently returning to Broadway playing/conducting the current hit revival of HAIR. 2010 Bistro Award Winner, Broadway Veteran and creator of the JUST A PIANO Concert Series, Lee Summers, directs "A Tribute to Queens."

Lee Summers' Just A Piano SM Concert Series has presented top vocal artists singing to JUST A PIANO since 2006 at New York's most beautifully refurbished venue, the historic Triad Theatre. The list of artists includes Tony Award Winners, Lillias White, Adriane Lenox and LaChanze, 3 Time Grammy Nominee/Tony Winner Melba Moore, Two-time Grammy Winner Caron Wheeler, Grammy Nominee Ryan Shaw and many more.

There is a $15 Cover + 2 Drink Minimum. Reservations can be made at www.Triadnyc.com, by calling 212 362 2590 or by contacting jane@janeburbank.com.
