Chicago musician Justin Hayford hosts “The Gershwins in Love,” an evening of classic Gershwin love songs—from the sublime to the ridiculous. This is the fourth annual benefit for AIDS Legal Council of Chicago at Davenport’s Piano Bar in Wicker Park. Hayford, who just released his fourth studio album on December 1, will treat attendees to well-loved Gershwin hits like I’ve Got a Crush on You, ’Swonderful, Let’s Call the Whole Thing Off, They All Laughed, and Someone to Watch Over Me. Fans should also be prepared for a few rarities that few have ever heard. Hayford has been called "a superb talent" by the Chicago Tribune and a "hip piano-playing saloon singer who should be heard more often" by Rex Reed. All proceeds raised from “The Gershwins in Love” shows go directly to AIDS Legal Council of Chicago. Attendees simply pay whatever they like at the end of the show. There are two evenings to participate, January 20th and 27th at 7pm, Reservations can be made online at davenportspianobar.com or by phone at 773-278-1830.
