ONE NIGHT ONLY – SUNDAY, JUNE 28 FEINSTEIN’S AT LOEWS REGENCY, the nightclub proclaimed “Best of New York” by New York Magazine, and “an invaluable New York institution” by The New York Post, continues its 10th Anniversary season with the debut of television and Broadway star STEVEN PASQUALE for one night only on Sunday, June 28.

In his first live performance of material from the album, he will be accompanied by the John Pizzarelli Quartet, which features Pizzarelli on Guitar, Larry Fuller on piano, Martin Pizzarelli on bass and Tony Tedesco on drums.

At Feinstein’s Pasquale will offer signature interpretations of some of the most enduring standards in the Great American Songbook, including his haunting rendition of the David Raksin/Johnny Mercer gem "Laura," a wistful "In the Wee Small Hours of the Morning," a swinging starry-eyed "On the Street Where You Live" and the CD’s title song, newly written by the album’s producers, John Pizzarelli and Jessica Molaskey.
