ABOUT THE SHOWCASE:
Ori Dagan, accompanied by Nathan Hiltz on guitar and Rob McBride on bass, will be performing excerpts from two programs currently offered by Station Bleue. A complimentary drink will be offered to all participating presenters upon arrival.
TALENT & SOUL: 100 YEARS OF NAT KING COLE
The companion show to Ori Dagan’s award-winning recording and visual album “Nathaniel: A Tribute to Nat King Cole” (Silver Medal for Best Album at the Global Music Awards, 2018). Music includes re-imagined classics (“Straighten Up and Fly Right”, “Nature Boy,” “Unforgettable”), hidden gems from Nat’s songbook (“Lillette”, “Darling Je Vous Aime Beaucoup”, “Pretend”) and original music inspired by Cole’s music, life and legacy (“Sting of the Cactus”, “Keep it Simple”, “Sweetheart”).
ORI DAGAN’S THE RAT PACK SONGBOOK SHOW
Inspired by the music of Frank Sinatra, Sammy Davis Jr. and Dean Martin, Ori Dagan’s The Rat Pack Songbook show is a brand new program which echoes the swing and swagger of “the coolest cats of all time.” Without resorting to impersonations or gimmicks, the program focuses on the entertaining songs of the era, from “Mack the Knife” and “Mr. Bojangles” to “Sway” and “My Way.” Each show is unique in that it features special guest vocalists; past participants have included John Alcorn, Steven Taetz, Donovan Locke and David Statham.
