A Holiday Evening with Tony and Grammy Award-winner John Lloyd Young has been set for Oscar’s Palm Springs on Tuesday, December 5, at 7pm, it was announced today by Chris Isaacson Presents and Oscar’s.
 
John Lloyd Young, winner of the 2006 Tony Award for Best Actor in a Musical for Jersey Boys, returns to Palm Springs with classic hits from mid-century, Broadway, and beyond. From Hold Me, Thrill Me, Kiss Me to Unchained Melody, hits from Jersey Boys like Can't Take My Eyes Off You, Sherry, and a little dash of Christmas, there'll be plenty of swooning wintertime nostalgia to accompany all those holiday cocktails. Young delivers songs with an immediacy and originality that make even long-established hits feel like they're unfolding in front of you for the very first time.  Said The New York Times, “John Lloyd Young has a disciplined one-in-a-million high tenor shading into falsetto that he can direct through the stratosphere.”
