Hear the First Single From John C. Reilly’s Debut Album as Mister Romantic
John C. Reilly, who has wowed audiences with vaudeville shows as lovelorn singer Mister Romantic, to release debut album 'What's Not to Love?'
Not only did the beloved character actor star as half of the legendary comedy duo Laurel and Hardy in the emotionally affecting biographical film Stan & Ollie(2018), but since then he’s created a throwback stage persona of his own, the lovelorn and musically inclined Mister Romantic, who has sold out concerts across Los Angeles since 2022. His charming debut, What’s Not to Love?,contains a baker’s dozen classics, spanning the work of Irving Berlin to Tom Waits and even Édith Piaf’s cabaret standard “La Vie En Rose,” along with songs popularized by Louis Armstrong and Jo Stafford. The first single, out today, is an appropriately swooning cover of the 1944 Johnny Mercer song “Dream,” previously recorded by singers including Frank Sinatra and Roy Orbison.
