169 Bar favorite Sarah Lynch will sing again Friday night at 8 o'clock, this time with a whole new posse: Pete McCann on guitar, Chris Higgins on bass, and Diego Voglino on drums.

Todd Jenkins calls guitarist Pete McCann “an exceedingly perceptive player with the good sense to approach songs in a way that befits their basic character, and the creativity to make something fresh out of those songs at the same time." (If you were at Kavehaz when he played with Lynch last Monday, you would know exactly what Jenkins means.)

When “Santa Baby" composer Phil Springer first heard Sarah Lynch sing, he likened her vocal quality to that of a trombone, and was the first to call her a “young Peggy Lee." Springer went on to record her on tunes he penned in the '40s but had never gotten around to recording them. You can hear Sarah Lynch apply this 1940s sass and to her fresh take on forgotten standards, as well as on her own original tunes.

169 Bar is located at 169 East Broadway (East Broadway stop on the F train), and these guys will play the 8 o'clock set. $7 cover.
