It's Tony, Baby

You know you're timeless when you're a professed and proven favorite of both Frank Sinatra and the (often fickle) MTV generation. And, if you've been singing long enough to catch Sinatra's ear and are still belting the hits and selling out concert halls, you know you have some music magic...

You know you're timeless when you're a professed and proven favorite of both Frank Sinatra and the (often fickle) MTV generation. And, if you've been singing long enough to catch Sinatra's ear and are still belting the hits and selling out concert halls, you know you have some music magic going on. Tony Bennett can claim both of these things, and he still regularly releases innovative new albums, sings the classics and participates in creative collaborations. Timeless, indeed. Tony Bennett performs at 8 p.m. Thursday at the Bass Performance Hall, Fourth and Calhoun streets in Fort Worth. Admission is $70 to $125. Call 817-212-4280 or visit basshall.com.
