Singer

In “JULIAN FLEISHER: UNDER THE RADAR,” a beloved member of the Joe’s Pub community since the early days contemplates the purpose of being an entertainer—while entertaining the fuck out of you. Leveraging American popular music’s obsessions with love, sex, loneliness, travel, and return, Fleisher wonders whether he has ever really known any of these himself. Is a person who devotes themselves to singing about life’s most precious, profound, and important moments any more qualified to understand them? Or does living life through song only lead one to believe so? All while, as the Washington Post put it, “blowing the roof off” the club.

Julian Fleisher: Under the Radar

Joe's Pub

As Julian Fleisher’s year-long residence comes to a close, he returns to one of his many home-bases, Christmas. That’s right. Christmas. For reasons that cannot adequately be explained, 20 years in the trenches of New York’s cultural life have yielded at least this much: that Julian is the producer of two of the most treasured seasonal favorites: Kiki & Herb’s “Do You Hear What We Hear?” and Ana Gasteyer’s “Sugar & Booze.” What’s more, his own holiday standard “Nothing Rhymes with Christmas” is now in movies, on television, and soon to be a standard among high-school show choirs. That also gets a “That’s right.” And a "How did this happen?" Is it an accident? A twist of fate? A twisted ankle? We’ll tell you: we don’t know. Let’s just be thankful that at this joyful time of year, Fleisher and an ever-growing roster of fabulous friends will be celebrating the season as the final season of "Four Seasons with Julian Fleisher" … and you should too. See you soon! (PS: “Isthmus" doesn’t count)
