Sunday Jazz Lunch | Frank Sinatra

Slide into Boisdale on a Sunday and be whisked away to the golden lounges of Las Vegas, where the martinis are dry, the tuxedos sharp and the voice, oh, the voice,is pure Sinatra. But this isn’t your run-of-the-mill Rat Pack revival. This is Frank Cognoscenti, a man so steeped in Ol’ Blue Eyes, you’d think he was born with a fedora and a whiskey in hand.

With that smoky baritone and devil-may-care charm, Frank glides from the swagger of “Come Fly With Me” to the slow-burn romance of “Strangers in the Night”. The man’s got the phrasing, the panache and that razor-sharp delivery that defined the Chairman of the Board himself.

Cognoscenti’s career has taken him from the West End to international stages, with appearances on the BBC and starring roles in acclaimed theatre productions that left critics and audiences raving. He’s studied Sinatra not just as a singer, but as a master of style and storytelling. What you get is not an imitation, but an experience - elegant, electric and soaked in the spirit of a true showman.

And let’s not forget the feast. Boisdale’s legendary Sunday jazz lunch brings you 18-hour slow-roasted rib of Scottish beef, goose fat roasties, all the trimmings and a nod to tradition with our signature Dumfriesshire Blackface haggis. It’s the kind of meal Sinatra himself would’ve raised a glass to.
