"REMEMBERING THE SANDS" NEW SINATRA SHOW AT THE CARNEGIE CLUB
Accomplished singer/performer Steven Maglio and the acclaimed Stan Rubin Orchestra will open a new show entitled "Sinatra: Remembering The Sands" featuring many of the songs that Frank Sinatra performed at the famous Las Vegas Hotel, on Tuesday, January 9th at 8:30 pm and then play every Saturday evening at 8:30 pm followed by his acclaimed Sinatra encore show at 10:30 pm at THE CARNEGIE CLUB (156 West 56th Street, NYC - 212-957-9676 - http://www.thecarnegieclubnyc.com/). Frank Sinatra, Count Basie, and The Sands Hotel are all gone, but the excitement of that blend of musical performance will come to life every Saturday evening at The Carnegie Club, just as if it were Las Vegas in 1960's all over again.

The Sands Hotel first presented Frank Sinatra for a week-long engagement in 1953 and three months later, he bought a share in the hotel and casino. The hotel's most famous claim to fame was a 3-week period in 1960, during the Las Vegas filming of the movie "Ocean's Eleven." The management organized an event in the Copa Room called the "Summit at the Sands", where for the first time, the stars of the film: Frank Sinatra, Dean Martin, Sammy Davis, Jr., Joey Bishop, and Peter Lawford performed on stage together. They would forever be known as the "Rat Pack." Sinatra continued to perform at the hotel through 1967.

Though not an impersonator, Steven Maglio is especially appreciated for his renditions of songs made popular by Frank Sinatra. Each show highlights different songs from "Old Blue Eyes'" legendary career. In the first show, Maglio and the 11-piece big band orchestra showcase such classics as "Luck Be A Lady," "I've Got You Under My Skin" and "The Way You Look Tonight" followed by the later show which includes the favorites "Night and Day," "Fly Me To The Moon" and "New York, New York."

Steven Maglio sang his first Frank Sinatra song, "My Kind of Town" when he was eight years old. It wasn't until 2002, however, that the New York native made his stage debut singing with Joe Battaglia and The New York Big Band at Tavern on the Green. Steven has performed at The Rainbow Room, The Blue Note, The Sands Hotel in Atlantic City, The Paris Hotel in Las Vegas and is set to return to headline with The Guayaquil Symphony Orchestra of Ecuador in the summer of 2007. Steven first performed at The Carnegie Club in 2003 as their Sinatra substitute before becoming their headliner in 2004 with his show, Sinatra Songs. Steven is a member of The Friars Club and MAC.

The Carnegie Club, located behind Carnegie Hall, offers an elegant and stylish atmosphere with the charm of old New York. The room boasts 25-foot ceilings with contemporary furnishings along with a stone fireplace and bookcases filled with leather-bound titles, creating an intimate and sophisticated space. Due to special provisions in New York law, the smoking of cigars and cigarettes is legally permitted in The Carnegie Club.

There is a $30 cover charge plus a two drink minimum.
