The Catalina Jazz Club presents “An Evening With Corky Hale!” on Wednesday, Feb. 1 at 8 p.m.

Hale, a pianist, harpist and vocalist, was born in a small mid-western farm town and started taking piano lessons at age 3. At 7, while vacationing with her family in Florida, Hale was heard in the lobby of her hotel picking out songs on the piano by house bandleader, Horace Heidt, who featured her for the next few weeks in his show.

Hale began studying piano at Chicago Conservatory at the age 7, and harp at age 8. She has performed at The White House with Tony Bennett, soloed with Barbra Streisand in Central Park and at the Hollywood Bowl, and performed with Björk on her MTV special in London. She has also appeared with George Michael at London’s Royal Albert Hall and Washington, D.C.’s RFK Stadium, has played harp with Liberace and Judy Collins, and piano with Billie Holiday, Mel Tormé and Peggy Lee. Hale’s harp, piano and vocals can be heard on her three albums “CORKY!”; “Have Yourself A Jazzy Little Christmas” and “Corky Hale and Friends…I’m Glad There Is You.”

Tickets are $20. The Catalina Jazz Club is located at 6725 W. Sunset Blvd. For information, call (323)466-2210, or visit catalinajazzclub.com.
