With Gladys & Harry, you can expect an evening full of great music, incredible vocals, and great personality. They can sing the standards right out of the jazz age or "jazzify" your favorite pop hits! Ever thought you'd hear Britney Spears done in the style of a speakeasy?
Every set list can be customized in advance with requests! The standard performance includes one lead singer and one pianist/singer but this can also be customized to include bass, drums, or strings depending on the needs of the event!
