(NEW YORK, NY) -- The Carnegie Club, New York’s most sophisticated cigar lounge, is pleased to celebrate the 20th anniversary of its Sinatra Saturdays starring Steven Maglio, with The Stan Rubin Orchestra. The anniversary shows are set for Saturday, November 16, 2024 at 8:00pm and 10:30pm.
Every Saturday night for the past 20 years, Maglio and the 11-piece orchestra have performed the songs of Sinatra to a room of spellbound fans young and old at midtown’s Carnegie Club. As described by the New York Times, “Steven Maglio does not have blue eyes, but with his smooth croon, Rat Pack swagger and the benefit of a thick cloud of cigar smoke, listeners just might imagine they were at the Copa Room at The Sands in 1963.”
Designed for fans of the Sinatra style, especially those born too late to hear Ol’ Blue Eyes in person, Sinatra Saturdays first came together 25 years ago when Carnegie Club President/Chief Executive Mark Grossich met legendary band leader Stan Rubin, who had gained international fame when his orchestra played Grace Kelly’s wedding in Monaco. They debuted Sinatra Saturdays in 2000. Five years later, Maglio took over the role of saloon singer and the rest is history. They’ve been swinging at The Carnegie Club every Saturday night since.
Over the past decades, the show invariably sells out, drawing a dedicated following of regulars, as well as a who’s who of Gotham glitterati, from Deana Martin, Clarence Clemons, Joe Pesci, Dennis Farina, Jeremy Irons, and Rosario Dawson to athletes Pelé, Dr J, Vlade Divac, Doug Christie and Peja Stojakovic.
Maglio says the appeal of the show “is not about impersonation but about reconnecting to a feeling when singers like Sinatra were always backed by a big band and nightclubs like El Morocco and the Stork Club reigned supreme.”
The Carnegie Club certainly transports its audience to that bygone era. Described as a place Don Draper would go to have a cigar and a drink to celebrate a deal, it ranks as one of the rare public places that’s smoke friendly in 21st-century Manhattan.
The Carnegie Club is located at 156 West 56th Street in New York City. For more information on Sinatra Saturdays, click here.
Every Saturday since 2004, with an 11 piece orchestra, Steven Maglio performs his Sinatra tribute show at The Carnegie Club (currently the longest running nightclub act in New York City) and has been critically acclaimed by the NY Times, NY Post, NY Daily News, Variety, The New Yorker, New York Magazine, Newark Star Ledger, Epoch Times, Cabaret Scenes, British Vogue, Oggi, BroadwayWorld.com, The Kennedy Family, and most of the cast of The Sopranos.
He has performed at Resorts AC, The Sands Hotel & The Hilton Hotel in Atlantic City, The Paris Hotel & Caesar's Palace in Las Vegas, The Breakers in Palm Beach, The Villages in Florida, and events in Nashville, Cape Cod, and Beverly Hills. Steven is an international performer, appearing on several occasions in Italy, Canada, Brazil, and with The Symphony Orchestra of Guayaquil in Ecuador.
He’s shared the stage with Frankie Valli, Wayne Newton, Dionne Warwick, Deana Martin, Jay Leno, Steve Tyrell, Tony Danza, Smokey Robinson, Lisa Lampanelli, Danny Aiello, Larry King, Joe Piscopo, Pat Cooper, Tony Orlando, Jordin Sparks, Johnny Maestro & The Brooklyn Bridge, The Duke Ellington Orchestra, and with Frank Sinatra’s former pianist, conductor & music director, Vincent Falcone.
