Jan Abrams Stars In I'll Be Seeing You - The Music Of WWII Joined by Christopher Marlowe on piano
Born and raised in the Bronx New York, her father and two were all piano tuners with an exceptional sense of pitch, and an affinity for the Great American Songbook. One of her uncles, Victor Abrams, was a songwriter with songs were recorded by Dinah Washington, Dean Martin, Sarah Vaughn, and Nat King Cole, so as the saying goes, "the apple didn't fall far from the tree". As a child, Jan remembers listening to her father and uncles sing standards, and Broadway show tunes in beautiful three part harmonies and the mold was cast at an early age. She continued her musical education and as soon as she was old enough, she got an apartment in Manhattan, and started singing in the clubs. She loved the intimacy of cabaret performing and performed regularly in a the West Village at Scene One before moving on to Manhattan and such notable clubs as, The Duplex, The Grand Finale, Freddy's Supper Club, Panache, Don't Tell Mama, and Eighty Eight's. Jan later moved to Los Angeles to get married and has headlined The Cinegrill at The Roosevelt Hotel, and at The Gardenia in Hollywood and has developed musical programs for senior audiences in retirement communities and Alzheimer facilities as well as multiple engagements to sold out shows in right here in the desert.
