Do you have personality and style? Do you want that reflected in your music choice for your event? Let Tiffany Blue help you! We are a jazz combo that is flexible and customizable!
My name is Stacee Mandeville (Surprise! My name is not Tiffany!) and I am the leader and vocalist of Tiffany Blue.
Check out my demos in the video section!
I can dress up or down to fit your event. I collect vintage clothes, and can even dress retro for themed events -- 40's, 50's or 60's. I provided one client with a James Bond theme party and it was a blast! I can work with your party planner to make the most out of any theme. We will even learn a custom set list for your event (up to ten songs) for a per song fee.
We charge per man, so whatever your budget, you can have live music! Big budget and big venue? Big band! Intimate venue? Bring in the trio!
See, my bands' size is flexible depending on your venue and budget. The foundation of Tiffany Blue is vocals, upright bass and piano. We can add guitar, drums, sax and trombone as needed. All of Tiffany Blues' musicians are NYC professionals, and are prepared to use their talents to make your event special!
I am also a ballroom dance instructor. Did you see "Mad Hot Ballroom"? I am in it! I can provide you with a beginner group lesson at your event to get people on the floor.
If you are a wedding couple, we can learn your song and I can teach you to dance to it. I specialize in "wallflowers" and people who have never danced. I bring a laid-back, fun, casual, low pressure vibe to lessons, so don't panic! I have helped many a couple dance their way through a song... and even enjoyed it! Ask about our wedding package.
I can provide classy and subtle background music for your quiet cocktail hour, or I can join the party as MC. I can make announcements, call people to the mic, chat with guests, and even dance with them. I have audience participation theater experience and am not afraid to interact with a party crowd where appropriate.
If you have an event where you need the kind of performance that can keep the crowd interested, I can provide a more jazzy-cabaret style show, complete with banter and audience interaction.
The cabaret option is great for wedding cocktail hours where the bride suspects that the photos and pre-reception prep time may take a while. Distract hungry guests with comedy and song. I can even create a personalized show using information about you and your guests. Ask about our cabaret package.
We are NYC based, but we will travel to Westchester, Connecticut, and even Hawaii (travel fees apply).
From private home to ballroom, Tiffany Blue can help you create an event that people will remember. Contact me! I can't wait to meet you!

A sexy, funny songstress. I saw Stacee sing a few months ago. She covered an eclectic mix of Ella, Nat King Cole, Patty Griffin, and Nellie McKay. Her voice is wonderful, but even better, her banter with the audience and her band, and her ability to shift from sultry to goofy in a nanosecond was astounding. The audience loved her!

I've seen her perform several times and Stacee does it all - great singer, great dancer, and she also has a great sense of humor. She sings the classics with class and flair, dresses the part with elegance and glamor, and has a very funny and engaging personality. I've seen her act several times as well - another of her myriad talents, and she can play the part of a lady in Shakespeare or the part of a broad in Guys and Dolls with equal skill. She's also a very good dance instructor on top of it all, so if you're looking for a singer and entertainer who can engage your guests in multiple ways (all PG-13!), Stacee is the one for you.

A soaring, melodic voice. Super-versatile. Really gets the party moving with her dynamic stage presence and swinging jazz standards. Hot and sassy! The audience was totally into it, having a great time.

Stacee is a multi-talented entertainer. Not only is she a great singer, a great actress, a wonderful dancer - but most importantly - she is genuine. She cares about her art and the attention to detail a performance deserves and demands from a professional. She puts much thought into what you and your event needs to be successful. If you want a 100% guarantee of an entertaining evening - Ms. Mandeville is your one stop shop for exactly that!!!

Stacee is something to see. She's got the class, the sass and the brass. Entertaining, talented, hilarious and cheeky, (when applicable). Very professional in her dance and singing world and can cut loose and be the life of the party when performing. Check her out. Disappointment will be checked at the door...

I heard Stacee Mandeville at an open mic at a restaurant in Queens recently. Stacee is a total entertainer, a real trooper, and a dangerous triple threat. First and foremost she is a wonderful jazz singer who also sings beautiful show tunes and pop songs. In addition, she is one of the funniest people you will ever see, both on stage and off with an infectious contagion known as "personality" which she has in spades. And finally she writes fantastic plays too. I can't wait to see her again!! You never know what she's gonna do!!

I had a few chances to hear her singing at the local events in the past few years and the most recent one was at The People Lounge in NYC. I always enjoy her singing and enjoy her MC inbetween the songs. She has an amazing range of voice/characters for the songs and never to forget making the audience laugh. I believe it all comes natural to her. I could see that she has a great personality. I I will certainly book her for my important occasions in the future.

Swingin'! Tiffany Blue is the cat's meow.

A. I do a lot of private parties, and some corporate events. I also play in bars and clubs when possible.
A. Be realistic about the size of the venue. If you are going to be in a huge space you are going to be unhappy if you hire a trio. You will be just as unhappy with a six piece combo with horns in your living room!
A. Many Jazz combos can be reserved and stuck in the past, playing only the standards, playing only in their comfort zone.
I come from a theater background. I am not afraid to speak on the mic; I have a great personality and will show it off whenever appropriate. I can do straight jazz or cabaret jazz with monologues audience participation. I can, and will dance with the audience, chat with the crowd, and deal with hecklers with humor.
I am willing to learn new tunes to make an event great, I will dress up or down or retro and am willing to work with an event planner on my own time to help us fit into the themes of any event.
I can teach ballroom dance and have a knack with non-dancers. Great for wedding couples or beginner group lessons at your party!
I also am aware of the economy and do my best to keep costs down for YOU, while I get to do what I love...which is perform! If you can't afford me, I sit at home singing to my cat. Boring!
A. I love that people get enjoyment and entertainment from a thing I have always loved to do. I love interacting with a crowd and I love it when they respond and laugh and engage me back!
A. Naturally the first question is usually "How Much does it cost?" I always do my best to keep the cost down by hiring us on a per-man basis. The other questions usually are about custom set lists and retro theme. I am happy to learn new music and I love to dress up so that's always the most fun!
