lounge act
Cabaret singer's gig
A lounge act is a musical performer or group that plays in hotel lounges, cocktail bars, or casino venues—typically offering easy-listening covers and light entertainment for patrons who are drinking or socializing rather than attending a concert.
The term often carries a slightly dismissive connotation, suggesting safe, background-friendly performance rather than artistic ambition: He's been doing a lounge act in Vegas for twenty years.
