“Mr. Rat Pack” Frank Lamphere will be performing every Friday in October at Viand Restaurant. Viand, run by Chicago celebrity chef Steve Chiappetti, features contemporary American cuisine and is located in the Courtyard by Marriott Magnificent Mile, just a half block from Michigan Avenue. Viand will be filling an important musical void for this area. “It’s harder and harder to find good live music these days” says a local resident. Frank Lamphere, should nicely fill that void.
A regular part of Lamphere’s sets are tributes to Dean Martin (vocally, one of the best around), Tony Bennett and of course Frank Sinatra. Known to break into a classic Italian melody (Al Di La, Volare, Ciao Ciao Bambina) with little if any accent, Frank can also be persuaded to perform an Elvis or Tom Jones number.
He is accompanied by pianist Larry Harris and drummer Mike “the Doctor” Jeffers. There’s not unlimited space but dancing is encouraged. For reservations phone 312-255-8505
The music begins at 8PM on Friday October 02 and will continue through December.
Viand is located at 155 East Ontario (southwest corner of Ontario and St. Clair)
