5/11: Jane Krakowski Sings, Fort Defiance & Others Pour…

"30 Rock"'s Jane Krakowski sings at Feinstein's at Loews Regency all week long.

SO META: Know how “30 Rock”’s Jenna, played by Jane Krakowski, always seems to find reasons to break into song? You can get a full measure of the ultra-talented actress’ musical mettle starting tonight at Feinstein’s at Loews Regency, where Krakowski herself will control the cabaret mic in a show titled "Jane Krakowski Has Sold Out…Tickets Available." If the band’s taking requests, we’d love a reprise of “He Needs a Kidney.” 8:30PM.

“HIGH” TIMES: The National—whose 7/27 Prospect Park Celebrate Brooklyn show sold out almost immediately—has a new album, “High Violet,” coming out today; to celebrate, they’ve joined forces with their label 4AD and Other Music to offer a week’s worth of surprise events and special performances at the shop, starting tonight at 7PM.

GRAPE MINDS: More than 100 wineries will be pouring while some of the city’s best chefs (from places like Aldea, Fort Defiance, The Vanderbilt and Salumeria Rosi) are pairing at the Wine & Spirits Magazine Second Annual Top of the List Restaurant Poll Event, which showcases the wines favored by America’s top restaurant sommeliers right now. The evening’s proceeds go to NY/NJ Baykeeper, which works for the conservation and restoration of the Hudson-Raritan Estuary. 6PM.
