Description

Birdland Theater is proud to announce that singer/songwriter Jacob Khalil will return to the stage on Tuesday, November 12 at 8:30pm!

 From performing with Sam Smith on Saturday Night Live to headlining sold-out shows at Birdland, Jacob Khalil creates music that brings people together.  Broadway World described Jacob’s concerts as, a “joyful experiencing of the music, with patrons clapping along and swaying in their chairs…” A rising singer-pianist in New York’s live music scene, in May 2024 Jacob captivated an audience of 3,000 while opening for Jake Scott. Earlier in January, Fox 5 NY featured a full segment on Jacob, delving into his musical journey and showcasing his original music. Often described as a blend of John Legend and Harry Connick Jr, Jacob brings a unique style that resonates with fans of jazz influenced artists such as Lawrence and Jacob Collier. 

Jacob honed his craft performing in New York City’s piano bars, jazz clubs, and professional choirs, all of which profoundly influence his personal style. He performs regularly in New York City venues such as Birdland, City Winery, 54 Below, Mercury Lounge, The Cutting Room, Minton’s, and many others.
