Better than Sinatra !!

This man can sing! He did an amazing job entertaining my family at my aunts 80th birthday. Everyone was singing along, it was a day we will never forget. His voice was very smooth and his artistry impeccable! Absolutely recommend for your next event 👏🏼

What to expect

I bring an excellent array of classic songs ranging from jazz standards to Mexican traditional songs. I pride myself on bringing class and an authentically retro experience to my audience. I bring an energy and feel to events that is world class, widely appreciated, yet seldom performed live. I can be seen in an ensemble of as little as one other collaborator or as large as a symphony orchestra and all else in between, whatever the event demands. I am honored to be able to bring my entertainment to receptive audiences.

About

24 year old Los Angeles Jazz singer/crooner and winner of the 2020 Jack Teagarden Jazz Festival. Singing only the finest repertoire of songs from the Great American Songbook, the Sinatra and Rat Pack classics, jazz, Boleros and Rancheras with authority and authenticity. Comfortable collaborating with a solo accompaniment of piano or guitar, and also capable of delivering a big band sound that almost no one else today can replicate. Let me know what your event demands be it just a speaker with backing track or a full big band set, I am ready to deliver timeless entertainment that is widely appreciated. My sets are typically 45-90 minutes depending. Thank you

Additional booking notes

A stage setting or at least proper area for music to be played with respect to sound level is necessary. If there is no PA or mic available I can bring my own equipment and my backing tracks. If there is a larger budget for a wedding or larger event one can expect me to handle bringing a full big band to perform as desired.
