Singer Bob De Dea will salute Bobby Darin in Singin' and Swingin' with Bobby D. on Friday, July 13, at 7:30 at West Seattle's Kenyon Hall.
Kenyon Hall's impresario Lou Magor writes, "When I announced this show to last week's Kenyon Hall audience, we all launched into an impromptu, under-the-breath version of Beyond the Sea, reminding me that Bobby Darin's songs, from his first hit single, the 1958 ditty Splish Splash, to his 1960 Grammy Award winner, Mack the Knife, are an essential part of the American songbook."
De Dea's resume includes his recent role in Damn Yankees at The 5th Avenue Theatre. Appearing with De Saccompanist/arranger, pianist David Duvall, to Kenyon Hall for this exciting musical evening.
You can see a clip of Bob and David performing Mack the Knife on KING TV's New Day program. Magor writes, "Although this was a promotion for a larger show in Federal Way last month, on our intimate stage it'll be just Bob and David bringing us Bobby Darin's glorious music."
