Kevin Roderick Music

I am punctual, reliable, and always attend well-rehearsed and ready to put on a show. My style is heavy on music and light on banter. I am well suited for professional appearances and my normal attire for indoor events ranges from a sports coat & dress pants to a tuxedo, depending on the venue. I am a bit more casual, but still professional, when appearing at outdoor summer events.
I primarily perform classic #1-#5 songs i.e. music that brings back memories and gets people clapping, singing, or dancing if there is room to do so; and regularly all three.
My sets are bespoke for each specific event. I am also capable of providing live music as dinner accompaniment for a quiet intimate setting; or control a full sized elevated stage and engage an audience in the thousands.
My services are scalable from solo vocalist, to a small jazz ensemble, to up to a 20+ piece full swing band.
Tell me your vision and I'll do my best to make it happen!

When I was a few years younger... I was a lead singer. I fronted both classic rock and country bands. My primary genres were 70's classic folk rock & 80's old school country. I've played pubs; large festivals; street parties; and private events. I've also done some recording in professional studios.
I am a musician and can accompany myself, on either guitar or piano, but my preference is to sing live, accompanied by professional backing tracks as a soloist musician vocalist. This is also the most cost effective performance option that I offer; and one that has been exceptionally well received in a wide variety of settings. However, I can bring along a small jazz ensemble, or even a full 20+ piece big band, if desired? Just let me know what you would prefer and I'll be happy to provide a quote.

My performance style delivers a unique; entertaining; and enjoyable musical experience. This approach incorporates live music with dependable instrumental accompaniment to facilitate dancing, or listening, and allows me to sing a variety of genres that could not possibly be delivered by a single band. I would need to bring along a 40's Big Band Orchestra; a 50's Rock & Roll band; a 60's Folk Group; a 70's Classic Rock Band; and an 80's Classic Country Band... in order to match the delivery of professional tracks. This would not of course be feasible but, even if it were, the cost would be dramatically increased while my personal live music contribution would be exactly the same.

I now concentrate on providing music for seniors: Primarily seniors' dances; seniors' residences; private parties; milestone birthdays and special events. I am however open to playing for any age group provided that the vintage of music that I perform is what is desired. I perform very little in the way of modern music and there are a number of music genres that are not in my repertoire at all.

While I define myself primarily as a classic Jazz Crooner, I am equally adept at 50s & 60s Rock & Roll; Classic Country; or 60s & 70's Folk Rock. I even sing some Gospel; Blues; Classic Rock; and Southern Rock.

My goal is simple: "To provide you with a musical experience to remember!"

I have a full complement of professional audio equipment and speakers; and some lighting as well. Additional requirements will be event and location specific. Let's chat!
