I think there is a misconception that this kind of singing has to be always heavy and torchy. Ella showed us that it can be about total joy.”Jane states one thing she knows one thing for certain: “The ‘Great American Songbook’ is always going to be the core for me. I have a real sense of pride and purpose about keeping it alive, bringing the music to new generations.” Monheit adds: “It’s a national treasure. I’m really proud to be one of the singers that people want to hear handling that material.”Jane Monheit spends most of the year on tour with her band which includes Michael Kanan on piano, Neal Miner on bass, and Rick Montalbano on drums.All ticket sales are final.
