More Friday Night Might: More Love Out Loud 2009

By -

New York City native Jake Silbermann was raised in an artistic family and always had an interest in performing. In 2007, he landed a day player role on Guiding Light; later that year, he was cast as Luke’s long-awaited love interest Noah on As The World Turns . Almost immediately, Silbermann was embraced by fans clamoring for an openly gay couple and [they] became a favorite pair. In fact, they were so popular, all of their scenes were put on YouTube. The pair's popularity continues to soar, as they're constantly voted Favorite Couple in Digest's online polls. Jake's contribution to their on screen chemistry speaks volumes about the acting talent of one so young. In this day and age it still needs a bit of chutzpah to play a gay role. It is getting better because of the likes of Jake Silbermann, who has graciously agreed to become part of Love Out Loud 2009. Visit here.

"Have we been waiting for something like this since Billie, then Dinah passed on--i.e. groovy, in-the-tradition jazz singing that actually means something? Heir apparent Betty Carter is on an ego trip, Cassandra Wilson is too arty... and so on. Abbey Lincoln's trip is something else again (perhaps Parisian) as she poignantly introduces "How High The Moon" in broken French and triumphantly ends the set with Francis Lai's "Live For Life." In between, Lincoln contributes good original lyrics from the point of view of a still-feminine quasi-bag lady--"social secretary" she calls it--an adept witness to hard times past and present. Lincoln gets excellent arrangements from Ron Carter and accompaniment fro
