Madeleine Peyroux Nellie McKay opens Friday, September 30, 8PM Music Center Two genre-bending singer-songwriters— one incredible night! One of a kind singer/ actress Nellie McKay beguiles audiences with her inspired song choices and deliciously otherworldly worldview: “Nellie McKay is all over the place—wonderfully so. Whether she’s delivering social commentary while strumming a ukulele…or exorcising the spirit of a devilish former lover over a festive bed of New Orleans jazz…this mercurial New York singer-songwriter brings both ample wit and equally generous melodies” (Rolling Stone). Singer-songwriter Madeleine Peyroux packs a double wallop: a compelling ability to reinvent familiar tunes through her intricately nuanced vocal shadings, and a poet’s gift for creating memorable new work. “Peyroux has the gift of totally inhabiting a song, whatever the mood” (The Telegraph, UK). Tickets $35–$58 (Stars Price $31.50–$53.10) Nellie McKay rick gonzalez Pat Metheny Jimmy katz An Evening with Pat Metheny w/ Larry Grenadier Tuesday, October 4, 8PM Music Center Co-Presented with Blues Alley Over the years, Pat Metheny has won countless critic and fan polls as “Best Jazz Guitarist,” collected 18 Grammy Awards, pioneered new forms of music and created new instruments, as transfixed audiences at his sold out 2010 “Orchestrion” concert at Strathmore can attest.
