Jamie deRoy & Friends - Volume 3 - 'Tis The Season

Released in 2001 by Harbinger Records, this installment in the Jamie deRoy & Friends series serves as a seasonal entry in a long-running collection of cabaret-style recordings. Jamie deRoy, a fixture of the New York theater and nightclub scene, curated this project to showcase a variety of Broadway and cabaret performers. The record was produced in the spirit of her live revue shows, aiming to capture the intimacy and festive spirit of the holiday season through a mix of standards and contemporary theater songs.

The album reflects the collaborative nature of deRoy's work, which often blends comedy, musical theater, and jazz influences. By inviting a diverse roster of talent to participate, the recording functions as an audio archive of the Manhattan cabaret circuit at the turn of the millennium. It was received as a niche collector's item for enthusiasts of musical theater, serving as a snapshot of the community deRoy cultivated through her long-standing hosting duties at venues like the Algonquin Hotel's Oak Room.
