Manilow's "intimate" Night Songs II
Manilow has described his upcoming album as "very intimate. Just me singing and playing piano as if I was in your living room.” It makes sense then that Night Songs II would be perfect to take on tour, as its intimacy is exactly what fans of Manilow (or "Fanilows", as they've dubbed themselves) dream of experiencing live and in person!
Night Songs II comes out on February 14th.
