The Music of Billie Holiday feat. Doug MacDonald

🎶 A Celebration of Billie Holiday featuring Doug McDonald

On April 30, step into an unforgettable evening honoring the legendary Billie Holiday, brought to life by acclaimed jazz guitarist Doug MacDonald.

Known as Lady Day, Billie Holiday transformed jazz with her unmistakable phrasing, emotional depth, and fearless storytelling. From “God Bless the Child” and “Strange Fruit” to “Lover Man” and “All of Me,” her songs remain some of the most powerful and enduring in the American songbook.

Doug MacDonald, a master stylist with decades of international touring, brings elegance, authenticity, and deep jazz roots to this tribute. His sophisticated guitar work and musical direction create the perfect backdrop to revisit Holiday’s timeless catalog — honoring not just the songs, but the feeling behind them.

This special evening blends mood, history, and swing in an intimate listening-room experience designed for true music lovers.

🎠 Carousel at the Cascade Lounge offers a plush, NON-SMOKING clubroom inside Agua Caliente Casino Palm Springs, featuring state-of-the-art sound and lighting — the ideal setting to celebrate the enduring legacy of Lady Day.
