Jazz and Nightclub Legend The award-winning Marilyn Maye appeared 76 times on The Tonight Show Starring Johnny Carson, the record for appearances by a singer. He called her “Super-Singer”.

Maye appeared twice, 2019 and 2022 on CBS Sunday Morning with Mo Rocca. On NBC’s Harry, she sang her classic version of “Here’s To Life” and was interviewed by Harry Connick, Jr. Her RCA recording of “Too Late Now” was included by the Smithsonian Institution on an album of the 110 best American compositions of the 20th century.

Maye continues to perform throughout the United States in various clubs and concert halls. For the past 18 years, she has appeared regularly each year in New York City, in the spring and fall at 54 Below for 10 or more sold-out nights, as well as Birdland and Dizzy’s at Jazz at Lincoln Center. Each year, twice a year since 2012, her multi-night engagements are sold out at The Purple Room in Palm Springs, Crooner’s in Minneapolis, MIM Theater in Phoenix, AZ and many other venues. “Marilyn Maye has everything. She has a theatrical flair that captivates and enthralls, and jazz-spiced chops that can reach notes most singers a third her age can’t even hit in their dreams. She’s the real deal, the surviving artist of the American popular singer.”–Rex Reed, New York Observer MarilynMaye.com
