The Love Hangover has been a morning-after musical remedy to Valentine's saccharine sweetness for several years in Kansas City -- but 2011's will have a strictly jazzy swing to it.
The self-described "post-Valentine's night of music for lovers and losers" will happen at Jardine's, and it will feature duets from the following artists: instrumental jazz duo Kim Sivils and Steve Rigazzi, singer-songwriters Sara Swenson and Barclay Martin, jazz mainstays Shay Estes and Mark Lowrey, Kansas City jazz names Millie Edwards and Michael Pagan, and singers (and married lovebirds) Laurie Abore and Nathan Granner.
"Say what you will about Valentine's Day, the day after anything is always a good time to
reflect, take stock and toss out the cynical and saccharine alike, leaving what's true for you
-- it's a New Year's Day of romance," says Love Hangover founder and producer Richard Alwyn, a Kansas City native. "The braggart, the believer and the broken man -- they all have something to say about love, and each makes an appearance at the Love Hangover as performers are encouraged to try on the different personas and walk through all the trials and triumphs of romance."
