lounge singer
Cocktail hour entertainer
A lounge singer performs in the intimate setting of a hotel bar, cocktail lounge, or piano bar, typically singing jazz standards, torch songs, or easy listening material.
The term carries connotations of smoky rooms, late nights, and a certain world-weary sophistication: She spent years as a lounge singer in Vegas before her big break.
It can imply someone talented but not quite successful enough for larger venues.
