Kati Neiheisel: London by Night
February 1, 2025 @ 7:00 pm - 8:00 pm
Kati Neiheisel returns to Pangea in an encore of her new show featuring songs performed by Julie London, Billboard Magazine’s Female Artist of the Year in 1955, 1956 and 1957.
London was known for her smooth, smoky and sultry delivery of jazz-inspired tunes, many of which were written by her husband, jazz pianist Bobby Troup, best known for writing the song “(Get Your Kicks on) Route 66.” London and Troup are also known for starring together in Emergency!, a television series (1972-1979) produced by London’s first husband, Jack Webb, of Dragnet fame. Directed by Lina Koutrakos, with musical director Gregory Toroian on piano, Skip Ward on bass, and David Silliman on drums, London by Night also features songs written by Caroll Coates, Arthur Hamilton, Antonio Carlos Jobim, Willie Nelson, and more.
“Neiheisel brought her own style, so calm, so in charge, to this evening… Her finely-controlled vocals were a pleasure all by themselves. This is indeed a show worth celebrating.” ~ Bart Greenberg, NiteLife Exchange
London by Night premiered at Pangea on August 24th, followed by a performance on September 26th, which coincided with what would have been Julie London’s 98th birthday, and an October 18th performance which coincided with what would have been Bobby Troup’s 106th birthday.
