Rita Wilson and Molly Ringwald deserve a lot of credit for being gutsy enough to go out of their comfort zones as performers and venture into the intimate, sometimes scary art from known as cabaret, where you're always live and can't rely on extra takes. It's also obvious that they've worked very hard at becoming the best vocalists they can possibly be. They have just as much right to live out their cabaret performing fantasies as, oh, about 75 percent of the 'singers' booking shows in cabaret room all over the New York. If Wilson and Ringwald weren't bold-faced names would their singing really be considered good enough to merit them gigs (and extended ones at that) at the Cafe Carlyle? And if they weren't celebrities, would they be receiving such breathlessly positive reviews from critics, some of who should know better?
Actress, producer and singer Rita Wilson stopped by last night's LATE NIGHT WITH SETH MEYERS to talk about making her debut at New York's legendary Cafe Carlyle. Check out clips from the appearance below!
The actress/producer/singer Rita Wilson makes her Cafe Carlyle debut in a two-week engagement, September 24 - October 4. She and a band including musical director Andrew Doolittle (guitar, background vocals), Alex Navarro (piano, keyboards, background vocals), Lee Nadel (bass) and Rich Mercurio (drums) will perform songs from Wilson's forthcoming second album with original material due out in early 2015, as well as selections from her collection of classics, AM/FM.
Ann Klein, who has played guitar with Joan Osborne, Ani DiFranco and many others, takes control of the mic, with guitar in hand, on Tumbleweed Symphony, released on July 15.
Laura Benanti - the Tony Award-winning actress and singer, also known for her TV roles on 'Go On,' 'The Playboy Club' and 'Law & Order: SVU' - will follow the recent release of her debut album, In Constant Search of the Right Kind of Attention with a slate of projects through the next year.
Halfway through her opening night at 54 Below on Monday, Laura Benanti unveiled the evening's showstopper, a multi pop-song mix titled 'Inappropriate Medley.' No, Benanti didn't faux strip her way through the songs as if she was replaying her past role as Gypsy Rose Lee, but she frantically ripped through eight songs, including Beyonce's 'All the Single Ladies,' 'Old Man River,' Sonny & Cher's 'I Got You Babe,' Aretha Franklin's 'Respect,' and culminated the riff by boogying like Tina Turner on 'Proud Mary,' and playing a tambourine tossed over by her Musical Director/pianist Todd Almond. As the audience commenced with raucous cheering, an almost out-of-breath Benanti quipped, 'I can't wait to read the review tomorrow that says Laura Benanti is an idiot.' Well, Laura Benanti may be a lot of things, but idiot is not one of them.
