FEINSTEIN'S AT LOEWS REGENCY, the nightclub proclaimed “Best of New York" by New York Magazine and “an invaluable New York institution" by The New York Post, will continue its star-studded Fall 2009 season with the celebrated chanteuse, MAUDE MAGGART. She will bring her critically-acclaimed show Parents and Children back to New York for a limited run, November 10-14. When it debuted last spring, The New York Times called Maude an increasingly fascinating entertainer whose show was bewitching and seductive. The evening features songs by Stephen Sondheim ("Beautiful"), Rodgers & Hammerstein ("You've Got To Be Carefully Taught"), Dolly Parton (Coat Of Many Colors), George Gershwin ("The Man I Love), Alec Wilder ("Be A Child") and Maury Yeston (My Grandmothers Love Letters"). Maude is returning to Feinsteins for the first time since her New York nightclub debut as Michael Feinsteins guest in December 2001. All shows will take place at the Regency Hotel (540 Park Avenue at 61st Street).

MAUDE MAGGART, the vocalist who started her performing career in the clubs of New York and Los Angeles, is exploding into one of today's most compelling international concert artists. She has been featured on NPR's “Morning Edition," a Time Out New York cover story and Entertainment Weekly's “Must List." Maude recently filmed her screen debut in a new movie about composer Kurt Weill by director/actor/screenwriter Robert Downey, Sr. She recorded a duet with Broadway and TV star John Lithgow for his CD, The Sunny Side of the Street, which was nominated for a Grammy Award. Maude made her Australian debut as part of the Adelaide Cabaret Festival.

Her latest CD, Maude Maggart Live, includes classic love songs such as “Skylark," “I Can't Get Started," “All The Things You Are" and “The Song Is You," in addition to rarely-heard vintage compositions by Kurt Weill ("The River Is So Blue"), Jerome Kern ("Let's Begin") and Harry Warren ("Coffee in the Morning, Kisses at Night"). Her recordings which has have been featured in Newsweek, on Garrison Keillor's “A Prairie Home Companion" and on the BBC in London are available at CDBaby.com.

MAUDE MAGGART is the scion of an acclaimed show business family: her grandmother starred in the George White Scandals, her grandfather was the star vocalist for the famed Harry James Big Band, her parents met while performing in the Broadway musical Applause and her sister is pop singer-songwriter Fiona Apple. Born and raised near 125th Street in New York City, Maude created a stir in Hollywood with her debut show at the Gardenia, when The Los Angeles Times said “Maude Maggart's talent and imagination offer hope for the future of cabaret."
