Steve Schalchlin and Friends: A New Bonus Round

Imagine you're invited to an exclusive living room in New York City, where an award-winning songwriter and his very musical friends (and special guests) warmly share touching, hilarious, heartfelt, and witty songs, spanning a wide range of musical genres, from country to ballads to Broadway to cabaret to acoustic punk. Join us at Don't Tell Mama on June 19th for "Steve Schalchlin and Friends: A New Bonus Round," a continuation of the magical evening that captivated audiences and critics on March 7th.

Alix Cohen (Woman Around Town) said, “Steve Schalchlin is one of those songwriters who can (and does) make anything into a song. Material is variously wry, tender, observant, or, like “The Only Kind of Music” with which he opens, rockabilly fun. The musician has a sure piano hand, a sense of infectious rhythm and the heart for ballads. ‘I Only See You Young” is a song for the ages.” She said of ‘Someone To Get Groceries With,’ “Good storytelling of unconditional love.”

"Charm, charisma, talent" (Bart Greenberg, NiteLifeExchange) filled the room during the March performance, as Schalchlin and the Bonus Round Band, featuring vocalist Blake Zolfo, delivered a show that showcased his diverse songwriting. "Talent as a songwriter shines" (Lydia Rose, BroadwayWorld) through each song, from heartfelt ballads to "bright, energetic" Rebel Nerds tunes.

Experience the "emotive performance" (Lydia Rose) of Blake Zolfo, a "wonderful merger of writer and performer," and the "witty charmer" (Bart Greenberg) of Schalchlin's songwriting, all in a setting that feels like a gathering of close friends.

The New York Times has praised "the romantic sweep of [his] songs, emotion catching your throat."

This is more than a concert; it's an invitation to be part of a warm community, to share in the laughter, reflection, and soaring melodies that define Steve Schalchlin's unique musical world. Special guests to be announced later.
