Jeff is an impressionist, and listeners are always amazed at how he can sound exactly like many different vocalists. Cindy sings songs made famous by The Carpenters, Shania Twain, Dusty Springfield, KT Tunstall, Sheryl Crowe, and Carrie Underwood just to name a few. We do karaoke services. We are experienced karaoke DJs or KJs and can host this type of event anywhere, from a small club or restaurant to a large hall. We are one of the few companies that offer karaoke with both computer and disc capabilities. Our karaoke disc player, a three-disc machine, is a JVC XL MV303 considered to be the finest player ever made. Patrons can bring in their own karaoke discs or can choose songs from our computer that has over 15,000 songs in its database. Our PA system is state of the art and has spectacular sound. We do open mic. With our years of experience hosting open mic nights and our great sound system, we have the facility to host this type of event as well. Customers are allowed to bring in acoustic instruments and perform a few songs. We play acoustic live music. Similar to the live music listed above, Jeff and Cindy can perform acoustically, without backing tracks, just using acoustic or electric guitars and our sound system. If one prefers, Jeff can perform as a solo artist and has many years of experience performing for both dinner and lunch crowds at many restaurants in both the Chicago area as well as in Britain. We also can perform as DJs, having provided this type of entertainment at many venues. Our computer has over 20,000 songs in the database and includes all of the dance and party favorites.
