Megan Lynch with Tony Marcus

Kelly McCubbin, The Uke Apocalypse and Amy Zing


Crooners & Songbirds is a monthly cabaret focusing on vocal jazz,
blues, and popular music from the '20s and '30s. Prepare to tap your
toes and get runs in your hose as Megan Lynch scorches the torch
songs and gets saucy, Tony Marcus caresses his archtop guitar into
sweet submission, Kelly McCubbin shows you the dark side of ukulele,
and Amy Zing wrestles the saw even more melodically and provocatively
than Marlene Dietrich did.

* Megan Lynch has crooned, warbled, belted, and yodeled at Crooners &
Songbirds, Bijou, Mighty, Noe Valley Ministry and other
establishments where they serve fine tarts. www.myspace.com/

* Tony Marcus has performed music from Dublin to Yokohama and from
Alaska to Florida. Bands he has played with include R. Crumb & the
Cheap Suit Serenaders, Cats & Jammers, Geoff Muldaur's Fountain of
Youth, The Arkansas Sheiks, The Royal Society Jazz Orchestra, and The
Frank Wakefield Band. He currently also performs with Patrice Haan as
Leftover Dreams. www.tuxedorecords.com/TM/index.html

* Kelly McCubbin, The Uke of the Apocalypse - Uke with attitude and
without
borders. Kelly plays favorites from the 20s, 30s and other popular
decades.
If you've always wanted to hear Cliff Edwards segued into Billy
Squire, this
is the uke player for you! ukeapocalypse.com/

* Amy Zing has always loved shiny and dangerous things, and on that
fateful
day in the hardware store, when her eyes landed on Stella, funny
ideas began
to bubble in her brain. Liberating each other from lives of mundane
utility,
they've both learned to appreciate the beauty hidden under the rust.
