Piano virtuoso Tamir Hendelman takes on the Great American Songbook and jazz standards on Saturday, August 23 with featured vocalist Eddie Wakes for a "Night of Nat King Cole". Music by Jazz Salon will complete this night to remember over looking Lake Arrowhead from the lawn at the Lake Arrowhead Resort & Spa. The style of music known as The Great American Songbook was built over a five-decade period, starting in the 1920s. Lyrically erudite, melodically sophisticated and harmony rich, the songs reflect upon love with uncommon poetic economy.
Eddie Wakes’ life as a singer is the stuff movies are made of: from performing at the Super Bowl as a youngster, to being discovered years later and recording a Christmas song, for Damien Chazelle’s LA LA Land. “You don’t hear many voices like his today. Rich, delicate and effortlessly beautiful.” – Damien Chazelle, Director, La La Land.
Light refreshments and beverages will be sold on site by the resort. NO OUTSIDE FOOD OR DRINK ALLOWED. Dress for the weather, which starts out sunny and include a cool late afternoon breeze off the lake. We recommend bringing a coat or jacket.
