"How do you get all that sound with just one guy?"
I start with
songs that have been
"hits" for the artists who originally recorded them. I then record the band parts at my home studio; drums, bass,
keys, backing vocals, etc. After recording, I add the new song to a laptop computer that has specialized
performance software. This software helps
me to instantly fill any song
request. When a guest walks up and asks for "Doobie Brothers" I can hit a few keystrokes
and it's ready to roll. It makes
for a seamless presentation that keeps
the music (and the fun) rolling along. This software also displays song lyrics, which allows me to invite guests
to take the mic to "be
a star". Including guests into the performance is a sure-fire
hit and it works, every time. Just ask my
clients. |
"What equipment do you use?"
I use the finest sound system available,
made especially for Solo Entertainers. It's called the "Bose L1 System". To be honest, it's a strange-looking rig but the results are nothing short of amazing (see picture at right).
That tall stick contains a lot of little-bitty speakers in it
which disperse the sound evenly, all around
the room. The sound is crisp, ultra-clear, and better than most home Hi-Fi systems. It's also virtually invisible and melts into any room setting. The little box to the left is a sub-woofer, which adds the "thump" that makes everyone want to dance. The L1 is nothing short
of amazing and yes, it makes a huge difference that your
guests will notice.
I'm also very excited to present a new addition, the VideoWall. I've added a projection
system with customized video presentations that work in sync with the live music.
This new addition is proving to be a real show-stopper and is quite unique in the
world of SingleActs (in fact, I don't know of anybody else using it yet). I can
also do customized video/music presentations for business conventions, wedding receptions,
and birthday parties.
For lighting, I typically bring a light tree with a sound-activated controller. This gives a great little light show that rounds
out the polished, professional look and sound that today's audiences demand. Details are crucial in entertainment
and I try hard to make certain everything is absolutely perfect for my clients. |

"What kinds of material do you perform?"
My catalog contains a couple
hundred hit songs that are evenly spread between Rock, Pop, Country and include material from the
60s, 70s, 80s through present. I provide appropriate material for anything from
an elegant Wedding Reception to a "get down with it" birthday party to a headliner
act at any corporate, charity, or sponsored
event. My clients have said that my presentation will
work for practically any age range and I work tirelessly to provide exactly what your
guests want; an enjoyable evening.
