Steve March‑Tormé, son of the legendary jazz singer Mel Tormé, brings a deeply personal and musically rich tribute to his father’s enduring legacy with Tormé Sings Tormé. As an accomplished American singer, songwriter, performer, and radio host, Steve has built his own distinguished career while honoring the timeless artistry of his father, known widely as “The Velvet Fog.”

Born in New York City and raised surrounded by music, Steve March‑Tormé developed his performance skills early, fronting his own band by age thirteen and later recording and touring nationally. Over decades, he has recorded multiple albums and cultivated an expansive repertoire rooted in jazz, the Great American Songbook, and classic pop standards.

Tormé Sings Tormé is a heartfelt musical homage celebrating what would have been Mel Tormé’s 100th birthday and highlights the rich musical contributions Mel made during his remarkable career. This engaging show features a dek‑tette, the exceptional arrangements originally written by Marty Paich specifically for Mel Tormé — arrangements that blend sophistication, swing, and era‑defining jazz style.

Audiences will enjoy masterfully rendered interpretations of favorites that showcase both Mel’s and Steve’s musical sensibilities. With selections ranging from swinging classics like “It Don’t Mean a Thing If It Ain’t Got That Swing” to lyrical renditions of “Blue Moon” and heartfelt ballads, this tribute offers a rich journey through the sounds that defined an era. Steve’s warm, expressive voice and deep connection to the music bring fresh life to these timeless tunes while remaining true to the spirit of the original performances.

In addition to the musical performances, Tormé Sings Tormé often incorporates engaging stories, rare archival photos, and video clips drawn from Mel Tormé’s personal and professional history. These elements add narrative depth and emotional resonance, allowing audiences to connect more intimately with the story behind the music.

Steve March‑Tormé’s work has been praised by critics and peers alike for its vocal elegance, interpretive insight, and charismatic delivery.
