Jeff Wessman

As a professional I am easy to work with. I'm prompt, responsible and communicate well with my clients to ensure that their expectations are not only met but exceeded.

As an entertainer I bring humor, musicality and a spirit of generosity, so that each performance is a success, elevating the event into something truly special and memorable.

As an artist, I know my material (i.e. the songs and the singers) thoroughly, bringing to life the sound and spirit of Sinatra with pitch perfect renditions of the greatest music ever written.

Jeff Wessman is a tribute singer based in the San Francisco Bay Area specializing in the music of Frank Sinatra. His tribute to Sinatra and Friends, “A Swingin’ Affair”, is a lively revue of popular songs with remarkable vocal renditions of all the greats including Frank Sinatra, Dean Martin, Tony Bennett, Bobby Darin, Michael Buble’, and Nat King Cole.

With his big band, ensemble, or as a soloist, Jeff appears regularly throughout the San Francisco Bay Area and across the US including such notable venues as the penthouse at the Fairmont in SF, the Colombo Club, and the Cocoanut Grove in Santa Cruz. Jeff has enlivened many life events including those for the Make a Wish Foundation, the Pacific Italian Alliance, On Lok, The Elks, The Rotary Club, and others. His performances have added fun and warmth to scores of weddings, anniversaries, birthdays and holiday parties. With more than 170 performances a year, Jeff is quite in demand.

"A man of a thousand voices" - Jeff also performs the songs of Hank Williams, Johnny Cash, Willie Nelson, Elvis, The Beatles, Neil Diamond, John Denver and many others.

In addition to his music work, Jeff has a media company, Inner Active Media, providing audio, video, livestreaming and online marketing services.

Jeff is based in Oakland CA.

If performing solo or with a band, I provide my own sound system. If solo, depending on the size of the event, I require a small table, such as a card table, to set up on. If a large room, and/or with a large audience and potential background noise, I provide a PA system, unless one is available at the venue, in which case I will use the house mic to get a feed from my monitors to the house PA.

When performing solo I sing to high quality tracks to reproduce the big band orchestra. I can also provide a large classy "branded" backdrop to provide more visual interest, as if I weren't enough.

For sets longer than an hour I like to take a short (5 min.) break every 45 minutes or so.
