Gina Martini is Great at 2-3 Times the Price!!!!!
I am very biased when it comes to musical entertainers and their abilities, especially when it is a work function and my reputation is on the line. They have to communicate extremely well in advance of the event, show up on-time, handle themselves professionally, be flexible for subtle changes beyond anyone's control, and (most importantly for me) they have to be very talented. Gina Martini is all of that, and I cannot stress how happy I am that she was our entertainment for this work event! Finding a mix of music that will appeal to everyone is no easy task, and Gina put together a program that had something for everyone. She was so much more than I had hoped for, and quite honestly, videos do not always present an accurate picture. Her clips and information were enough to secure the booking, but she is even more impressive live and in person than her videos! I cannot recommend her highly enough! If anyone asks for an entertainer for their function/party/whatever, Gina Martini is the first person I would recommend. She was wonderful as a solo artist, and I am looking forward to seeing her with her band whenever possible. I am very, very happy with Gina Martini, and truly believe that anyone who decides to hire her will not be disappointed in the least!
In the 1950s Rock and Roll music was embraced by teenagers and rock stars were made, including Elvis, with hits including Don't Be Cruel and Heartbreak Hotel, and Chuck Berry and Fats Domino. Color TV became a major influence, stereos were offered for sale and American Bandstand had an audience of millions, playing venue for stars like Bobby Darin, Connie Francis and Fabian to be discovered. Other prominent rock and roll musicians included Paul Anka, Bo Diddley, Buddy Holly, Jerry Lee Lewis, Little Richard. The Grand Ole Opry with its country sounds was in full swing!
The 1950s in the U.S. was a feel-good decade, marked with a rise in the economy for the first time in nearly 30 years. Widespread suburban developments and nuclear family ideals serve as symbols of the 50s era. For a happening birthday party, high school reunion, anniversary party, corporate event or just an event to remember, go nostalgic... go Fifties!

Some things to consider when hiring 1950s entertainment are to make sure you listen to audio and watch video clips of the performer/group. This will ensure that you truly do book the best for your next event! Next, you want to get references. Talk to people in the area about the performer and get feedback. Finally, get a contract. Many professional performers require a deposit to secure them at your next event. Make sure to read through the contract carefully before contracting their services for your party.
