“Bay Area singer Jonathan Poretz once again proves his crooning chops with a SF cabaret show spotlighting Frank Sinatra and Bobby Darin!”–San Jose Mercury News Some say he was born with a microphone in his hand. That would explain why Pacific Coast jazz artistJonathan Poretzis so comfortable performing his brand of great American jazz standards to audiences large and small. Whether appearing in an intimate club or a large outdoor venue, Jonathan brings an electric energy to any stage he’s on, a talent he’s been cultivating since his early teens, when he sang professionally in bands that featured jazz greats including Charlie Shavers, Snooky Young, Chuck Wayne, and Joe Puma in his home town of New York City. He has written and starred in several highly acclaimed shows, includingSex, Swagger & Swing: Sinatra and Darin in the Concert That Never Was, which debuted at the Rrazz Room in San Francisco before touring performing arts centers throughout the Bay Area. His show,Sinatra, Dino, Darin and Davis — When Vegas Was VEGAS!, made its bi-coastal debut at Feinstein’s at the Nikko in San Francisco and 54 Below in New York City. Following Tony Bennett’s passing in 2023, Jonathan produced and starred inTotally Tony: Keepin’ The Music Playing, celebrating the musical legacy of an artist considered by many to be the world’s greatest interpreter of the Great American Songbook. His newest show,Happy Birthday, Bobby: Darin at 90!, makes its world debut at 54 Below in New York City on Bobby Darin’s actual 90th birthday, May 14, 2026. Jonathan’s jazz-oriented CDs,A Lot Of Living To DoandAt Last… Songs For Elena, both on the Pacific Coast Jazz label, are available for download on all streaming platforms. Please note that all artists and acts are subject to change at any time. Jonathan Poretz
