Outstanding Male Singer
"Certainly one of the best voices in cabaret today. McAssey proves there is such a thing as a male cabaret STAR!"
-- NEW YORK POST
"He manages to somehow be both cabaret's most accomplished balladeer and its wildest, most uninhibited musical clown."
--VARIETY
"McAssey is in his prime right now. A voice that is as rich, warm and enveloping as you could ever hope to hear. It's clear that he's a star of any stage upon which he performs."
-- Scott & Barbara Siegel, THEATERMANIA.COM
"Non-stop entertainment, punctuated as often by his dazzling vocal prowess as it is by his comic genius." -- BACKSTAGE
"Ready to sample some outstanding cabaret? There aren't enough opportunities for New Yorkers to enjoy the McAssey magic. Catch him NOW!"
-- CABARET SCENES MAGAZINE
"His voice has never sounded better...the years have added a polish and luster that give his readings more depth and substance and his calm, focused delivery is to be envied. Like a fine wine, McAssey is a consummate professional who the years have only made better."
-- David Hurst, SHOW BUSINESS
"A supreme interpreter of a lyric, capable of exploding every emotion on stage from total buffoonery to tears."
-- PRIVATE LIVES
"...a terrific singer."
