L-O-V-E: A Tribute to Nat King Cole

Experience the velvet elegance of Nat King Cole as Vintage Noise presents L-O-V-E—a heartfelt tribute to one of jazz’s most iconic voices. From the effortless swing of “Straighten Up and Fly Right” to the aching beauty of “Mona Lisa” and the timeless tenderness of “Unforgettable,” this evening is a celebration of grace, phrasing, and the quiet power of connection. Every song is delivered with reverence, warmth, and emotional clarity.

Michael Carter leads with subtlety and soul, capturing Cole’s smooth vocal phrasing and natural charm without imitation. Accompanied by Franz J. Díaz on piano and Jason Keiser on guitar, the trio honors the essence of Cole’s classic arrangements—intimate, lyrical, and deeply human. The interplay between musicians is refined and intuitive, creating a soft glow that surrounds each tune and invites listeners into the story.

Set within the romantic setting of The GrandView—where city lights shimmer beyond the glass and candlelight flickers between courses—this performance offers an evening to savor. Ideal for jazz lovers, date nights, or anyone who finds beauty in restraint, L-O-V-E is more than a show—it’s a moment suspended in time.
