In celebration of James Taylor's new album American Standard, the music icon performed an exclusive iHeartRadio ICONS show — hosted by Q104. 3's Jim Kerr — for fans in New York City on Thursday (February 27).

During the intimate show, James performed tracks off his recently released LP, which "showcases 14 carefully selected beloved songs of the 20th century re-imagined, including jazz standard 'Teach Me Tonight,' Bing Crosby's 'Pennies From Heaven,' Audrey Hepburn's 'Moon River' and more."

"I've always had songs I grew up with that I remember really well, that were part of the family record collection - and I had a sense of how to approach, so it was a natural to put American Standard together," he previously explained of American Standard in a statement. "I know most of these songs from the original cast recordings of the famous Rodgers and Hammerstein musicals, including 'My Fair Lady,' 'Oklahoma,' 'Carousel,' 'Showboat' and others."
