Super 85th Birthday Party

Leslie Diane was the perfect entertainer for my mom's party! She arrived early so we were able to start earlier and the music was the perfect tone for this senior center. Her songs were all familiar to everyone and sing-a-longs by everyone there was a hit! Thank you- thank you- thank you

Excellent Performance & Great To Work With

Lesley performed at my grandfather's 90th birthday party. Our entire experience with her was great, from initial correspondence and booking, to her amazing performance. She did a great job, even going out of her way to learn some new songs that were outside of her normal genre. Everyone commented on how much they enjoyed her performance. We would have her back for another event in a heartbeat and I would highly recommend her services.

Response from Lesley Diane:

Thanks for your kind words, Jamie! It was so much fun- and a great honor- to help you all celebrate Richard's 90th. Your grandparents are an amazing couple! But you already know that : ) Best wishes to all of you for a great 2016- tell Chessie I really enjoyed her song!

What to Expect

Here's what to expect if you hire me:

An engaging, reliable singer/musician with varied, well-planned sets tailored to your event. I'll communicate promptly if you have questions before the show. The day of the show I'll arrive in plenty of time to unload and set up so the show starts on time. I'm there for you and your guests, not for my ego. Your enjoyment is what I'm concerned with. I'll happily adjust the volume of my performance according to your request. If you have specific song requests that you want me to include, please let me know in advance so I can learn them and bring them up to performance standards. If someone request a song during the show, I'm happy to take requests if the song is in my repertoire.

I don't use stage lights (in case that's important to your event). But I have excellent, professional sound gear to make the show sound awesome! If you want some light stage banter, I'll happily accommodate. Or I can just "shut up and play my guitar!" according to your preference. : )

I look forward to playing for you- thanks!!

About

Hi, and thanks for stopping by! I'm a professional singer/guitarist/multi-instrumentalist based in Greenville, SC. Unapologetically Retro. : ) I'm fortunate to have grown up with the music of the 60s/70s, with amazing bands and singer-songwriters. My RetroRoom Concerts are planned around the music of this time and are great for entertaining Baby Boomers with songs we can all sing along to. Playing the songs you've loved since your Levi's were size 8!

In addition to my love of retro music and 60s/70s tunes, I love much of the music that reaches back to the songs of the "Greatest Generation" - the generation of my parents. I love playing for the residents of assisted living and memory care communities. Book a Greatest Generation Concert when you're planning events for these groups, or to celebrate a special day for a senior loved one with a private event or house concert.

If a retro vibe isn't the right fit for your event, let me know what you need! I cover most popular genres, playing covers, and originals if requested. I'm fortunate to be able to entertain audiences with music they love, and look forward to playing for you!

Additional Booking Notes

I have professional quality gear that lets me bring first-rate sound to your event. I need to have a grounded electrical outlet within a few feet of where you'd like me to set up. I bring my own power strip as part of my gear and just need a safe grounded outlet to plug into.

If your event takes place outdoors, please provide a covered area, or tent to protect from the elements. An area of 8'x8' or so will give me the space I need to set up comfortably.
