About:

Jon Hendricks calls him “a real Prince of Song, upholding a noble tradition as only he can.” Abbey Lincoln declared that he “bears a standard and is an inspiration to those of us who love the music.” Now in the sixth decade of his performing career and “back home” on our always-welcoming stage, Lionel Frederick “Freddy” Cole is a nonpareil vocal interpreter of The Great American Songbook and a superbly swinging pianist. Cole’s special guest for this Jazz Standard engagement will be the masterful tenor saxophonist Harry Allen, whose lengthy discography as both leader and sideman includes the 2008 releases Stompin’ The Blues (with Joe Cohn) and the Japan-only Viva! Bossa Nova. “Harry’s playing is nothing less than perfect!” (John Pizzarelli)
