An Update from Mover and Shaker Jenna Esposito: Jenna's May Newsletter!

Greetings, All!  Happy May!  As we move along into the heart of Spring, I've been keeping busy working on a new show, which will see its debut at Feinstein's at Loews Regency in August (more on that in next month's newsletter), as well as securing some more bookings for the rest of the year!  I'm delighted to be spending my Sundays in May singing at Grappa Ristorante in Warwick, NY, and I'm also very much looking forward to my July 15 concert in my hometown of Middletown, NY!  And, as I announced last month, MetroJam will be EVERY Friday night starting in July, which is going to be a lot of fun!!  For my Southern CA friends, I'll be out your way in December with a New Year's Eve show at the Torrance Cultural Arts Center!  I'll be sharing more details on that in the coming months, but just wanted to let you know to save the date!  That's about all the news for now, but be on the lookout for more updates soon!  Have a wonderful, warm May, and I hope to see you soon!
All the best,
Jenna
