About this Event
The Foundry presents Tony Award-winning actress and singer Cady Huffman and Jazz and Broadway bass player Mary Ann McSweeney in “The Anti-Valentines Show” on Friday, February 13 at 7:30 PM. Combining voice with bass, and whatever else strikes their fancy, the duo pirouettes from Peggy Lee to Jimi Hendrix, with a promise that nothing is off-limits.
Cady Huffman started playing the Euphonium in 3rd grade, eventually putting it aside in favor of high kicks and belting out show tunes. In recent years she has taught herself the ukulele, couching the high kicks and refining her vocals to include her softer side. Influenced by Ella, Peggy and Blossom Dearie, she infuses her music with her huge heart, humor and megawatt smile.
McSweeney has played with jazz legends Dizzy Gillespie, Joanne Brackeen, Lee Konitz, Gil Goldstein and Bucky Pizzarelli. She has played for renowned conductors, Leonard Bernstein, Lalo Schifrin, and John Williams. As a freelance bassist she has played 45 different Broadway and Off- Broadway productions. She continues to compose and arrange music for her “Urban Fado” project and is looking forward to recording her Urban Fado Project II.
"The McSweeney/ Huffman hour wasn't a cabaret show, and it wasn't a nightclub act... it was a jazz set, a jam session, a living room concert, and... coffe shop set. It was fun to be a part of something that felt so natural and relaxed." - Stephen Mosher, Broadway World
"I liked it more than I thought I would." - The Foundry Sound Guy
