LateNights With Brad Schrader - Bringing Back Cocktails, Cole Porter And Classy Evenings!

Album LateNights

I make it my goal to carry the torch of the American Songbook to a new and younger audience, to keep this great music alive among us. For LateNights we wanted to bring an easy, night-out-with-a-cocktail vibe to our listeners—something we try to bring to our live shows. We bring a cross-section of standards—and not-so-standards—with fresh arrangements to make things easy and interesting. Our superb band of jazz veterans builds a chill groove under and around the vocals, drawing the listener into the track. Folks seem to enjoy it; we hope this comes across for you.

Album release November 20, 2025—preorder and sample track here.
