SPEAKER: DEREK LEEBAERT

ENTERTAINER: ERIC YVES GARCIA

Eric Yves Garcia is one of the most coveted, award-winning singer/pianists in NYC, as well as London and Paris. He is the proud recipient of the Margaret Whiting Award, a Bistro Award for Singer-Instrumentalist and most recently, was honored with the Donald F. Smith Award presented on stage at Jazz at Lincoln Center. His current perch is a lauded residency in the Two E Lounge of The Pierre Hotel on Fifth Avenue. Within New York City, Eric has made multiple appearances at Carnegie Hall, 54 Below, Jazz at Lincoln Center, Birdland, Town Hall, Symphony Space, The Sheen Center and frequently guested in the smash burlesque revue, Polite Society. He has headlined at Bemelmans Bar and, most notably, the Café Carlyle. Overseas, Eric enjoyed several engagements in London at Crazy Coqs and The Pheasantry, as well as a happy series of week-long runs at Club Rayé in Paris’ Marais District. While continuing to perform nights, Eric’s daytime hours have been rewarded with teaching music to young children as well as offering music therapy to elders with memory loss, most prominently as an instructor in the 92Y’s Program for Cognitive Strength. A graduate of Fordham University at Lincoln Center’s theatre department, Eric is delighted to still work as a voice actor and narrator for Audible and other major publishers.
