Tony Starlight vs Jazz, The Rematch!

Friday, September 30th

One show at 8pm

Tony Starlight’s reputation as Portland’s leading lounge lizard was earned largely on stage during the early days of Jimmy Mak’s, nearly 20 years ago. Since then Tony spent some time in LA before returning to Portland in 2007, opening his own venue and becoming Portland’s leading musical comedian. Tony performs throughout the region as a featured entertainer and master of ceremony.

Tony Starlight vs. Jazz
For this special show, Tony returns to his form as a lounge singer singing some of his favorite nightclub style arrangements like “The Lady Is A Tramp”, “More” and more. He’ll also dust off some Starlight classics like “The Girl With Emphysema” and “My Hair Keeps a-Fallin’ From My Head”. Most importantly Tony will confront jazz head-on with comedic monologues and ask such important questions about jazz like:

What exactly is “jazz face” and is there a cure?
How can this be jazz? People are listening.
Do I still have to clap after a bass solo?
Should the state require a license to “scat”?

Who will win this epic battle? Tony Starlight or Jazz?

Tony is joined by The Matt Tabor Quintet, stocked full of top notch jazz musicians. Todd Marston (piano), Brett McConnell (bass), Nick O’Donnell (guitar), Toby Reuter-Harrah (drums), and Paul Mazzio (trumpet).

Special guest Warren Black, host of 89.1 FM KMHD jazz radio’s The Song Is You, will join in the fun and help Tony take on the musical menace known as Jazz.
