Billy's Back

“Kinky Boots” Tony Winner Billy Porter Is Back With A Broadway/Jazz Fusion Album

billyLess than a year after winning the Tony award for Best Actor In A Musical for Kinky Boots (and giving homophobic critics of the cast’s Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade performance a boot in the ass by shopping in costume at the store the day after), out singer/actor/dancer Billy Porter is back with a new album of jazz-tinged Broadway standards.

We were on the scene at the release party earlier this week, and after getting over how damn gorgeous Aisha Tyler looked two feet away from us in a jaunty gray jumpsuit, we were drawn into Porter’s smooth voice and the lush melodies on display in Billy’s Back On Broadway.

Though he was resting his voice and didn’t perform that night, he did perform But The World Goes Round on this morning’s Today, so get a sample of what Billy has to offer and head over to iTunes to get a few samples of (and buy, duh) Billy’s Back On Broadway.
