Andrew Walesch and His Orchestra

Concert Details

Like many before him, singer and pianist Andrew Walesch manages to encapsulate cosmopolitan sophistication and the self-effacing charm of a country boy. Whether composing and arranging or performing as a solo artist or with a big band, Walesch, who crisscrosses the country playing dates big and small, is as respectful of his predecessors as he is ready to leap into the unknown and chart a new course.

In his sold-out monthly shows with his 10-piece band, Walesch is both traditionalist and iconoclast. His audiences include jazz enthusiasts of a certain age as well as a younger crowd drawn in by his down-home insouciance and the knowing irreverence of a tried-and-true American nightclub entertainer.

Walesch’s vocal and piano chops, along with his knack for finding and interpreting a great lyric, have led to great opportunities. He has appeared on the nationally syndicated NPR broadcast Mountain Stage and performed at the 33rd Annual Cabaret Convention at the Rose Theater at Jazz at Lincoln Center in New York City.
