Coulter & Lavine Team Up in Goin' Home: Songs of the South

One of the highlights of the 2002 Manhattan Association of Cabarets and Clubs (MAC) awards show was a soaring duet from previous MAC and Bistro award winners Scott Coulter and Audrey Lavine. This July the southern-born singers invite audiences to join them on a musical journey home in "Goin' Home," at THE DUPLEX CABARET THEATRE (61 Christopher Street, NYC - 1-212-255-5438 - http://www.theduplex.com/) on Thursdays, July 10th, 17th, 24th & 31st at 7:00 pm. Musical director is Ross Patterson. There is a $15 cover charge, 2-drink minimum.

"Goin' Home" grew out of the singers' experience performing together at the MAC awards show, watered with Jack Daniels, and rooted in the fertile ground of their common southern heritage. Coulter was born in Nashville, TN; Lavine was born in Fort Worth, TX, and raised in Greensboro, NC. The show explores musical traditions of the south, as well as songs that celebrate the people, places, and customs of this region that has contributed so much to the character of our nation.

In addition to their MAC and Bistro awards, and southern roots, Coulter and Lavine combine uncommon musicianship with a style that has been honed by their extensive musical theater backgrounds. Both are graduates of the prestigious Cincinnati Conservatory of Music. Coulter, known for his concert performances of the music of Stephen Schwartz, also toured the country as Jinx in "Forever Plaid," and appeared in the world premiere of "Floyd Collins." Lavine's Broadway credits include associations with some of the great leading ladies of our day, including Betty Buckley, Barbara Cook, Judy Kaye, and Teresa Stratas.

Joined by Ross Patterson, musical director for the "Broadway By the Year" series, and long-time Lavine collaborator, Coulter and Lavine promise audiences an evening showcasing the joys, regrets, triumphs and contradictions of the place we call the south and its influence on the music we love.
