Valentine’s Day at The Highball w/ The Copa Kings

Posted February 14, 2010 under Diner, Stage.

HBP-Vday1

The most lovely holiday of the year is fast approaching. We’re spreading the love with a five-course dinner and music from Austin’s own The Copa Kings. Email reservations@thehighball.com to make your reservation and enjoy all five courses and the live music for just $70 or $95 with wine pairings with each course.

The Copa Kings were formed in Austin, Texas, out of a desire to breathe new life into some of the great jazz standards of the 1930s, 40s and 50s. With great reverence, the band brings a unique passion, artistry and flair to the jazz music of this period. Led by vocalist Billy Murphy and arranger/pianist Rob Greenfield, The Copa Kings pay homage to some of our country’s greatest jazz songwriters and performers.

Members of the ensemble have played with locally and nationally known acts, including The Atlantics, White Ghost Shivers, The Jazz Pharaohs and The Blackbird Trio.

As if that wasn’t enough, we’ve found the perfect match for your taste buds, a five-course dinner specially prepared by Trish Eichelberger, our great executive chef. Get ready to fall in love.
