For those not in the know, Brad Schrader has been singing the American Songbook for 25 years and now brings his classic sound to a broader audience, both old and new. Performing “Cocktails and Cole Porter” and “A Night at the Carlyle”, Brad will take you back to the classic, classy days of the old Astor Bar - classic songs delivered with a new twist to make a memorable evening experience.

Brad brings the best of the American Songbook to you as a fresh and refreshing evening out. Expect a new twist on these musical classics accompanied by the clink of ice within your crystal coupe. You will laugh and sigh and, who knows, maybe see something in your partner’s eyes! Spirit forward - the music, the drinks, and the audience.

Brad performs with Albert Oehrle, Jerry Vezza, Billy Handy, Nick Nasibiyan, Alex Claffy, and Andrew Van Tassell, and with Kathy Wier as part of the trio “Off the Record.” He also performs with Sharon Kornet in the “LateNights,” backed by Ralph Pugliese, Joe Lupis and previously by the late Joe Claffy.

With this immaculately sculpted new recording bringing back the vibe of an easy-night-out-with-a-cocktail, he opens his very own classy evening of music on the smooth as silk Time After Time and the languishing beauty of I Wish I Knew and then we get the bountifully joyous It’s All Right With Me, the gentle ballad It Never Entered My Mind, before we are brought forth the all-embracing sounds of Quiet Nights With Quiet Stars (Corcovado), the set rounding out on the pacy finger-snapper combined with frenetically driven saxophone of You Do Something To Me, closing on the delicately-hued Skylark.
