NIGHTtime extended through the 2009 holiday season!

admin — Wed, 04 Nov 2009 16:14:43 +0000

Currently in it’s 8th month, NIGHTtime has now been extended once again, with performances every Thursday evening throughout the 2009 holiday season. The evening features wonderful songs from the early half of the 20th century and tastefully mixes in original material written by Marcus and co-composer Jon Davis.

Marcus is joined by the lovely Janice Friedman Trio and frequently welcomes guest artists throughout the evening. The Night Hotel offers a sensual ambiance, a delicious menu (open late) and stimulating cocktails served up by master somalier, Darko.

Life in this city is often stressful and filled with deadlines…escape it all on Thursdays at the Night Hotel. In the wonderful words of Ted Koehler, “forget your troubles, c’mon get happy.”

After all, some things can only happen at Night…

Sets: 8pm/9:30pm, no cover

HotHouse Feature by George Kanzler - September 2009

MARCUS GOLDHABER
NIGHT HOTEL/SEPTEMBER 3, 10, 17 AND 24
Barely into his thirties, Goldhaber ranks among those precocious jazz-pop-cabaret crooners from Harry Connick Jr. to Michael Feinstein to Michael Bublé, who embraced the past (crooning and classic pop standards) while still in their twenties. His latest album, Take Me Anywhere (Fallen Apple), includes seven original songs. Not as brash as Connick or Bublé, nor as suavely sophisticated as Feinstein, Goldhaber sings with lithe swing in a intimate style akin to Chet Baker’s. Besides the weekly Night Hotel gig with Janice Friedman Trio, he can also be heard at Prohibition September 7 and 14, this time with Jon Davis Trio. GK
