Maude Maggart Sings Irving Berlin December 2, 2005

Born and raised near 125th street in New York City, Ms. Maggart is the first daughter of Broadway veterans Brandon Maggart and Diane McAfee, and the sister of singer/songwriter Fiona Apple. Fostered by Andrea Marcovicci and Michael Feinstein, Ms. Maggart was introduced to cabaret society, appearing as guest artist with Feinstein and Marcovicci at various cabaret venues around the United States; notably Feinstein?s at the Regency in Manhattan, the Plush Room in San Francisco, and the Oak Room in Manhattan. The New York Times says "Beautiful, poised, intelligent and gently humorous, Ms. Maggart delivers songs as sustained ethereal sighs. There are ghosts living inside a voice whose pinwheeling vibrato evokes a blend of operetta and gramophone styles buffed with a contemporary understanding. Kate Bush or Tori Amos might sound like this if they burrowed into the past and dug up its treasures as lovingly as Ms. Maggart does."
