Klea Blackhurst & Billy Stritch – Dreaming of a Song: The Music of Hoagy Carmichael

Klea Blackhurst and Billy Stritch bring Dreaming of a Song: The Music of Hoagy Carmichael to East Hampton’s LTV Studios, Saturday, July 18, at 7:30 p.m., as part of the 2026 season of Hamptons Summer Songbook By the Sea. Hoagy Carmichael, the celebrated composer, pianist, singer, actor and bandleader, wrote some of the most lasting and influential pop songs of the twentieth century. Collaborating with lyricists Frank Loesser, Mitchell Parish, Johnny Mercer, Ned Washington, Paul Francis Webster and Harold Adamson, his contributions to Hollywood films and the hit parade are invaluable to the Great American Songbook.
