"Mr. Rat Pack" Frank Lamphere Sings Retro-Pop & Jazz November 13, 2009

Step back into an early sixties (pre-Beatles) musical atmosphere every Friday night as "Mr. Rat Pack" Frank Lamphere sings retro-pop & jazz, backed by his swingin' Rat Pack Jazz Trio.

A regular part of Lamphere's sets are tributes to Dean Martin (vocally, one of the best around), Tony Bennett and of course Frank Sinatra. Known to break into a classic Italian melody (Al Di La, Volare, Ciao Ciao Bambina) with little if any accent, Frank can be persuaded to perform an Elvis or Tom Jones number, when the mood is right.

He is accompanied by pianist Larry Harris and former drummer with George Shearing, Rusty Jones. Dancing is encouraged. Viand is located in the Courtyard by Marriott (a block east of Michigan Avenue on Ontario)
