The most wonderful time of the year gets even more wonderful with BRINI MAXWELL: HOME FOR THE HOLIDAYS. This evening of music, banter and helpful holiday planning tips from Brini Maxwell will include a variety of standards including Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas and The Christmas Song, as well as a live P.S.A. for her favorite charity, Toys for Tots.
Accompanying Maxwell during this intimate night of chat and song will be GLAMA Award nominee The David Downing Trio. This melodious blend of piano, bass & drum, with the occasional saxophone, was called "rare and satisfying... shades of Mel Torme’s swinging mixed with Chet Baker’s laid back cool sound" by Out Magazine.
Since 1998, Brini Maxwell, aka Ben Sander, has hosted The Brini Maxwell Show, an urban home style show featuring helpful household hints, fabulous new recipes, and lessons in social etiquette -- all with a decidedly 1960’s flair. She lives in a hip, retro-decorated apartment, sports a fabulously kitschy wardrobe and espouses how-to's on everything from cooking and cocktails to DIY gifts and thrift shopping. She's got style, she's got flare... she's got a set of vintage mixing bowls that will be the envy of every flea-market shopper.
A national version of The Brini Maxwell Show debuted on the Style Network last December. As with the popular Manhattan cable access show, Brini,, is the charming hostess with helpful hints. The first season, feature celebrity guests including designer Cynthia Rowley and Cosmopolitan diva Helen Gurley Brown, was so popular that a second season of new shows is now in production. The Brini Maxwell Show airs Thursdays at 9:00pm on Style Network.
