Michael Gilas Set for Headlining Performance at The Cutting Room This April
Acclaimed Singer-Songwriter to Share the Stage with Veteran Hitmaker Brian Kennedy in New York City
New York, NY– As the spring concert season gains momentum, one April date is quickly emerging as a standout on the city’s crowded live music calendar. On April 8, singer-songwriter Michael Gilas will take the stage at The Cutting Room for a headlining performance that highlights both his artistic growth and a vastly rising national profile.
Gilas, whose recent chart success has positioned him as an artist to watch, brings with him a sound rooted in emotional honesty and narrative depth. With two Billboard-charting singles already to his name, he continues to build a reputation for performances that resonate long after you hear the notes. The music is memorable beyond compare, and that’s only some of the magic Gilas brings to stages.
Sharing the bill is special guest Brian Kennedy, a respected songwriter and vocalist whose career spans collaborations with global superstars including Kelly Clarkson, Rihanna, and Justin Timberlake. Kennedy’s extensive experience in both studio and live settings brings an added dimension to the evening, offering audiences a rare opportunity to see two distinct yet complementary artists share the same stage.
The performance is expected to emphasize connection over spectacle, with a format that allows both performers to explore the full range of their musical styles. From powerful vocal showcases to quieter, introspective moments, the evening is designed to reflect the strengths that have defined each artist’s body of work. The intimate setting of The Cutting Room further enhances that dynamic, creating an atmosphere where storytelling and musicianship take center stage and brings the house down with flying colors.
