Jazz reimagined: Deborah Silver brings ‘Basie Rocks!’ to Feinstein’s

Deborah Silver performs in Carmel tonight

INDIANAPOLIS (WISH) — Songstress Deborah Silver will reimagine rock classics with a big band jazz twist when she takes the stage at Feinstein’s at Hotel Carmichael on Thursday.

On her newest release, “Basie Rocks!”, Silver and the Count Basie Orchestra transform classic rock hits into jazz standards, offering a fresh take on beloved songs.

Silver says she and producer Steve Jordan worked hard to make classics by The Beatles, Elton John, Peter Frampton, and other rock icons into a “cool” experience for longtime jazz fans and new listeners.

“We had to make sure that what we did was something that would work in today’s world,” Silver said during a visit to WISH-TV’s Daybreak. “Steve Jordan, he said, ‘You know what? You have to make sure they’re cool, and if you have to think whether or not they’re cool, they ain’t cool.’ So, we were going for cool, and we hope that’s what happened.”

Silver’s performance at Feinstein’s includes a dinner and show package, with tickets priced at $39 and a $25 minimum for food and beverages.

Doors open at 5:30 p.m. and the show starts at 7:30 p.m.
