Brendan Reilly & Jamie Safir – The Sound of ’66’

Our resident Musical Director and pianist extraordinaire welcomes one of the finest vocalists in the world to the club for a special new show celebrating an incredible year in music – 1966.
It was the year Sinatra recorded his seminal ‘Live At The Sands’, the legendary musical ‘Funny Girl’ opened in the West End and Barbara Streisand released her acclaimed album ‘Color Me Barbara,’ along with brilliant recordings by the sublime Nancy Wilson. Brendan and Jamie will take you in a magical musical time machine to celebrate some of these unforgettable recordings in their own inimitable way.
