FOR DUSTY SPRINGFIELD... THE WINDMILLS OF MY MIND at Feinstein's at the Nikko
The cabaret will take place on Saturday, August 23, 2025.
By: Emmy Rice Jul. 06, 2025
Feinstein's at the Nikko, San Francisco's premiere nightclub, will present Lianne Marie Dobbs in For Dusty... The Windmills of My Mind, one night only with music director Ron Abel and local band members Brian Sheu, Daniel Fabricant, and David Rokeach.
Lauded as a Top Ten tribute show of 2024 by BroadwayWorld, alongside shows by New York Pops at Carnegie Hall, with hit songs like A House is Not a Home, The Look of Love and Son of a Preacher Man; all made new thanks to original arrangements by renowned pianist and music director Ron Abel.
"The Windmills of My Mind" exceeds ALL expectations" (TheaterPizzazz); a must-see exploration of the eclectic songs and quirky mind of Dusty Springfield, 'the blue-eyed soul singer' of the 1960s and beyond.
Dobbs pays tribute to Dusty Springfield with "sensitivity, spirit, and passion in every note and lyric" (LA Jazz Scene), all while having a racing brain and "a voice that can cause more damage to a roof than a Florida hurricane" (TheaterPizzazz).
Audiences will be touched by Dobbs' musical interpretations, and will laugh more than anticipated at her comical digressions.
Lianne Marie Dobbs and her band play Feinstein's at the Nikko (222 Mason Street) on Saturday, August 23rd, 2025. Reserve tickets in advance for this one night only event that performed to standing ovations at top clubs such as 54Below in NY and Catalina Jazz Club in LA.
