New York is where the great crooner sound still feels at home: a ballroom in black tie, a horn section swinging, standards that every generation in the room knows by heart. If that is the night you have in mind, Chris Norton is the singer we recommend. He performs in the vein of Sinatra and the great crooners, and New York City is one of the places he performs most.
He knows the rooms
Chris has performed at some of Manhattan’s best-known venues, including Cipriani, the New York Public Library and the Rainbow Room. Rooms like these call for scale and polish, and for a voice that carries the Great American Songbook with warmth, phrasing and timing.
