Peggy Sarlin at the Metropolitan Room

Peggy Sarlin, who’s written for Bette Midler, Patti LuPone, and Disney, will debut her new band at the Metropolitan Room. Peggy will sing original blues-infused songs from her debut album, Friends and Family, and new songs — served with a slice of soul — from the album she’s currently recording. Jeff Franzel, a hit songwriter and distinguished pianist, will accompany her, along with Paul Frazier on bass and Steve Williams on drums.
