TONIGHT’S SHOW – DANNY BACHER:
LET THE GOOD TIMES ROLL!


Danny Bacher is an award-winning singer, saxophonist, songwriter, and
entertainer in the fullest sense of the term. He’s not only a master of the
demanding soprano sax but combines his virtuosity on the instrument
with a talent for comedy and narrative storytelling.

He’s a smooth and cool individual who makes hot jazz and pop, cut from the cloth of the great Louis Prima and Mel Torme. Bacher swings with pizzazz, and scats and sings with a smoky voice, all adding to his compelling stage presence.

Stephen Holden in The New York Times said of Bacher that he’s a “prodigiously talented musical preservationist,” adding what Bacher knows in his bones is that “the secret of serious fun is not to take it too seriously.”


Bacher has also worked as an actor, comedian, dancer, and writer, touring internationally with his original works.

He has performed several times at Carnegie Hall and most recently alongside the legendary Michael Feinstein. A recent recipient of the prestigious Margaret Whiting Award, Bacher was also nominated for best male vocalist in the 2019
National Jazz Times reader’s poll, in 2020 and 2021 he placed in the top 4 in the country, and in 2023 he received the Bistro Award for outstanding achievement as a singer/instrumentalist in the New York entertainment community.
Danny was personally selected by the 98-year-old jazz legend, Terry Gibbs, as the vocalist to record his Songbook.
