Perfect evening! Thanks Jeff!

I highly recommend Jeff. Last night he performed at my husband's surprise 50th birthday party. During our conversations prior to the event, Jeff quickly responded to my messages and questions. He was prompt, set up and ready to play before his start time and even added some additional lighting. During the event, he was very professional, handled all requests, and was very friendly. The quality of his performance was outstanding. Thanks for making our evening unforgettable.

Thank you, Jill! One of the most unique venues I've ever played and a lot of fun. Conni was super helpful. Looked like Tom and your very friendly guests were having a good time, most importantly. Thank you for the wonderful opportunity!

Very entertaining

Jeff was very entertaining and accommodating. He was great at sending me a few MP3s of his music early on so that I could have a least a little taste of what to expect on our Wedding Day. He was very responsive in getting back to me and making me as we got closer to the event which made me very comfortable. Several of our guests commented on how good he was and asked where we knew him from. Thank you Jeff - we are so glad that you were part of our event.

Annette & Penny,
It was a pleasure to entertain all of the very nice people at your wedding. The circle dancing towards the end was my favorite! All the best to you!

What to expect

My Acoustic Classic Rock show can be customized to your preferences. From mellow background music to a fun party of dancing and singing along. Feel free to choose the songs on my list you'd like to hear at your event. And don't worry, I won't chew up any time telling bad jokes or sharing political views..:) It's all about everyone having a good time at your event!

About

I have performed in numerous rock and country bands in Wisconsin, Minnesota and California over the last 30 years. Most recently with the Madison based rock group Midlife Crisis from (phone number hidden)9. After that, I decided to go solo and have been performing Acoustic Classic Rock music at private parties and many popular places in and around Madison, WI.

Wishing to appeal to a wide range of audiences, I have created a "One Man Band" type show, complete with guitar, percussion and great vocals. I do not use any Karaoke music or pre-recorded backing tracks. Everything is triggered and performed live through the use of six floor pedals. Overall volume is easily adjusted by using one level control. I can rock the club or dial in the perfect level for the lounge.

A typical show runs for 2 hours with a short break. During a break, I can provide the music of your choice via your MP3 player or mine. During the show, the audience will be treated to a wide variety of crowd pleasing classic rock hits. My equipment is state-of-the-art and the show is always presented in the most fun and professional manner.
