Kym Frankovelgia sings the Classics at the Timbers

Italian singer Kym Frankovelgia will perform standards, jazz, Broadway and comedy at 6:30 p.m. Thursday, July 3, at The Timbers of Shorewood, 1100 N. River Rd., Shorewood.

Frankovelgia has a deep passion and respect for the music of a bygone era. Her renditions offer a modern twist to the classics from the 1920s through the 60s. She performs hundreds of shows a year and recently released her latest album, “Bigger is Better.” Other albums include “The Secret of Christmas,” “One for the Road,” and the self-titled “Kym Frankovelgia.”

“(She is) born to entertain,” according to Mark Davis of the Chicago Tribune.
