I am a fine instrumentalist and vocalist; involving my audience with a warm, energetic and fun personality.
Remember: “The bitterness of poor quality remains long after the sweetness of low price is forgotten” – Benjamin Franklin
Modern technology allows even lesser products to look good -- where my track record tells all.
I entertained on the Regal Princess Cruise ship, which was voted the BEST ship for entertainment of ALL cruise lines five years in a row. (link hidden) That was achieved that by always performing at my best.
Need some classy background music or desire exciting music for dancing? I'm perfect for either occasion.

October 16, 2018Aloha, Jimmy:
Jerry and I will never forget the fantastic time we had on the Majestic Princess when you were with the Randy Heddon Quartet. We loved you and your music so much that we became groupies and are so glad that we were able to see you so many evenings during our seven-week cruise.
We are sorry you're in Palm Springs now because cruise ships don't go there, but we will tell our partner to contact you since he and his wife live nearby.
Love and Aloha, Bonnie and Jerry

October 10, 2017Jimmy was the best. He was early, prepared and a great entertainer. Many of our guests commented on what a wonderful time they had listening to and dancing to Jimmy’s music. Someone at the party booked him for one of their events and I would definitely use him again!

August 21, 2017Jimmy was extremely professional. He was a crowd pleaser engaging with all throughout his performance. During the process of booking, he embraced our ideas and offered us guidance. Jimmy was flexible and on the day of our event, he was extremely prompt. He was easily able to get the crowd moving. The melodic tones that he performed using both flute and saxophone was absolutely happiness to our ears. He definitely went above our expectations. He was the perfect piece or shall I say "Pill" for our couples therapy retreat. I would definitely recommend Jimmy and if we are ever in the Palm Springs area in the future won't hesitate to contact him again.

What to expect depends largely upon what the client wants, but here's a typical private party:
1. I arrive early and set up in plenty of time before the guests arrive.
2. Usually, the first hour or so as the guests are arriving, mingling and eating, I keep the music relatively low-key: Standards, soft jazz and easy listening vocals.
3. As people finish up their dinners, I pick up the music and interact with them, encouraging them to sing along or dance.
4. I usually close the evening with a really up-beat icon that everyone knows and likes to sing and dance to.
5. I'll bid the guests farewell, thank them for coming and recognize the host for putting on a fabulous party.
If there are any announcements, I’m happy to make them, and the hosts or distinguished guests are welcome to use my microphone for toasts, speeches or simply to welcome everyone.
Perhaps the most famous original group which Jimmy Street was a full-time member of is the 80’s parody group Big Daddy, which was famous for lampooning the pop music of the day. Big Daddy was on Rhino Records and had a strong cult following. They toured England, Australia and the United States and made national television appearances in all three countries.
Jimmy in well known for his world-class flute and saxophone abilities as well as his highly acclaimed vocal abilities. Because of his love of entertaining, he has recently concentrated on his live performance abilities. He is a founding member of the popular party band The Hodads (available as a 5-piece core band or all the way up to a full 20-piece orchestra) and also has a successful duo which he performs with called The Street Brothers. As of late, he has been honing his musical chops on his live solo project simply known as Jimmy Street; playing and singing along with well-produced tracks which include background vocal harmonies which he adds.
Jimmy Street has always been active as a first-class musician and has appeared with:
Jay Leno, Diane Reeves, The Pointer Sisters, The Smothers Brothers, The Coasters, Pat Boone, Casey Kasem, Jerry Lewis, Louie Anderson, Pattie LaBelle. He is also a sought-after composer and arranger, with many television, radio and movie arrangements and compositions to his credit.
In the course of his career, Jimmy Street has performed with:
Jay Leno, Frank Sinatra, Patty LaBelle, Kieli Smith, Jack Jones, Jimmy Rogers, Lainie Kazan, Buddy Greco, The Drifters, Pat Boone, Tony Danza, Lee Oscar, Jerry Lewis and most recently, the rising pop diva from England — Ashley Jay, whose songs are recently on the charts in the United States..

Jimmy Street compositions have appeared on several International Syndication's: Santa Barbara, General Hospital and more recently, one of Jimmy’s novelty songs was used to open several Beach Boy Concerts.
Jimmy Street is a member of ASCAP, and The AF of M.
Since I do a solo act only a small stage is needed. A bout 8' x 8' should work well. Providing easy access to electricity should definitely be considered as well.
Placing me in an elevated, strategic location so that I can be seen will allow me to interact with your audience far more effectively. I do not have lighting, so consider that an important element as well. Placing me in a well-lighted location will enhance the performance 100%
Have an electrical outlet near me. I have a 50 cable but I fear people tripping over long cable runs.
Go over your plans for the evening with me early (As in: before the day of the event) rather than last minute -- if you can. That way I can better prepare to serve you.
Let me know song requests well in advance. I may have to do some homework to accommodate you. For best results, refer to my song list.
I am here for you and your guests to the best of my ability.

I have been influenced by wide variety of musicians, singers and entertainers. From singers like Frank Sinatra or Michael Jackson to jazz musicians like Paul Desmond or David Sanborn or classical flutists like James Galloway. I am by no means a 'specialized' act. I play a wide variety of music and styles...but everything is a memorable piece of music that just about everyone has heard and enjoys.
I noticed one constant element when I observed great entertainers: They talk TO their audience, not AT them. They are always positive, and "on". I strive for that standard.

My Clientele is very discerning and I know I can rely on Jimmy to get a party going or just do background as befitting the occasion. I have no qualms in ever hiring or recommending Jimmy Street."
– Richard Slosberg, ceo The RLS Agency, Inc.
My dear friend and cohort, Jimmy "Street" Reeves has been a part of my musical life for 25 years. We started our friendship while we were in Big Daddy (Rhino Records). Ten years later, it continued in The Hodads until this day. In all musical situations, Jimmy has been the frontline star and spark. His entertainment acumen is unparalleled.
– John Hatton Bassist/Vocalist for The Brian Setzer Orchestra, Jose' Feliciano
I've had the pleasure of utilizing the multi-talented Jimmy Street on three different occasions, all of which were tremendous successes. Besides his terrific musical talents, one of his greatest strengths is his ability to "know his audience". His attire, set selection, and stage manner always fit the audience. He's always on time and always is gracious to fans after the performance. I would recommend him without hesitation.
– Ray Adams President & Group CFO Aviation Leasing Group Kansas City, Missouri
Jimmy Street is an excellent addition to any musical presentation, from instrumental-based jazz and pop to his extraordinary vocal capabilities. Beyond those gifts, he brings terrific showmanship to the stage, and is always able to build a great rapport with an audience. I have worked with Jimmy in everything from small "background music" gigs to full production concerts, and his attitude and contribution are always 100% plus.
