February 21 at 1:00 pm
Midday Jazz at St. Peter’s
54th & Lexington Ave., NYC
“Swing is a given; it’s under this performer’s skin like bones. Arrangements celebrate and respect. Call/respond numbers are performed with brio. Solo vocals have an attitude that can be imitated, but sound authentic coming from this young man.” — Cabaret Scenes
“The secret of serious fun is not to take it too seriously, especially if it involves playing jazz. That attitude is something that the easygoing singer and saxophonist Danny Bacher … knows in his bones.” — The New York Times
“Danny Bacher is reminiscent of ‘triple talent’ icons such as Louis Armstrong and Sammy Davis, Jr. He’s a serious jazz musician who can hold his own improvising on soprano sax or scatting with the best musicians on the scene…he has a natural flair for comedy and a voice full of soul.” — Roseanna Vitro, Grammy-nominated jazz vocalist and educator
“Danny is a rare artist who swings as a musician, is a wonderful singer, and really understands and delivers the lyrics! What a concept!” — Marilyn Maye
