Great American Crooners brings the golden age of crooning to life with timeless classics and captivating stories of music legends Frank Sinatra, Tony Bennett, and Bobby Darin. Join Robbie Lee and Shenel Johns (who have both graced Jazz at Lincoln Center’s stages) and Benny Benack III (Downbeat’s #1 Rising Star Male Vocalist) for an unforgettable evening of velvety ballads and sentimental serenades. 

Relive classics like “I’ve Got You Under My Skin,” “Misty,” “I Only Have Eyes for You,” and “Moon River,” performed with style, flair, and world-class talent. Experience the magic of these legendary crooners, told through music and true stories. 

He may be young—only at the tail end of his twenties, believe it or not—but he seriously has his act together in every way, shape and form, as this album proves.
