John Gilmore Trio

The Frank Sinatra Songbook is especially important to me, given my father’s close association with the legendary vocalist. I perform Sinatra’s famous favorites with special attention to and great respect for his unique swinging style and marvelous ballad interpretation. I also specialize in the performance of music from great American composers like Cole Porter, George Gershwin, Hoagy Carmichael, Harold Arlen, Frank Loesser, Johnny Mercer, and a host of other prominent songsmiths. In addition, I sing selections in French and perform my own special arrangements of classic tunes by the Beatles. Songs made famous by the great Nat King Cole and Tony Bennett round out my repertoire.
