Nancy Anderson, Ann Hampton Callaway, Franc D’Ambrosio, Bill Daugherty, Connie Pachl, and Sarah Partridge will appear in September as part of the continuing series of free “Any Wednesday” concerts at Tower Records’ Lincoln Center store (Broadway and 66th Street).

On September 6, jazz singer Partridge will introduce her new CD You Are There: Songs For My Father; she will appear September 5-9 at the Algonquin Hotel’s famed Oak Room. On September 13, Callaway will perform selections from her new CD Blues in the Night; a Tony Award nominee for Swing!, she will appear September 6-10 at Dizzy’s Coca Cola at Jazz at Lincoln Center.

On September 20, D’Ambrosio — who has played the title role in The Phantom of the Opera more than 2,600 times — will sing a variety of traditional and contemporary Broadway songs. He will be bringing his acclaimed cabaret show Franc D’Ambrosio’s Broadway to the Metropolitan Room, September 21-24. Finally, on September 27, Thoroughbred Records will present Anderson, Daugherty, and Pachl, three of the label’s most popular artists.

Each performance will begin at 6pm, will last approximately 30 minutes, and will be followed by a CD signing/meet and greet session. Seating is limited.
