Angelo’s surprise performance for my dad’s 70th birthday was incredible!! The theme was aviation, and Angelo went above and beyond to research Frank songs with any mention of travel, flying, etc. His voice was spot on, and his energy/vibe made the night. All of the guests had the best time! We will definitely be booking him again for future parties! Thank you!!

This is the second time I hired Angelo for birthday dinner event. Last year he sang for my dad’s 99th birthday. My father and guests loved his singing. So for the 100th birthday, we had him back again!! Again he was entertaining, personable & fun. He definitely was one highlight of the event. We are aiming to have him back for my dad’s 101 birthday….God willing 😍
Super talented!
Great Personality!
Great Customer Service!
I wish I had a Birthday everyday so I could hire him everyday!

Response from Let Me Be Frank:
Hi Ray, thanks for honoring me with the chance to sing last Sunday. You are blessed with a wonderful family & your party was a total blast! If your birthday was every day, I'd be happy to oblige, if only it didn't speed up the aging process. Enjoy the Holidays and the year ahead!
All the Best,
Angelo
My daughter hired Angelo for a surprise for my 70th. He was fantastic and even assisted me while I attempted to sing one song. Highly recommend!! Everyone loved him!!

Guests really enjoyed the performance. Great Frank Sinatra impersonation. Would recommend to any Party.

My Mom loves Frank Sinatra. The Let Me Be Frank performance was the perfect gift for my mom’s 95th birthday. Mom lives in an assisted living facility and everyone at her party, from my two year-old grandson to Mom to eldest resident at the facility loved this tribute show. Let Angelo be Frank! You won’t be disappointed.

I hired "Let Me Be Frank" for a wedding proposal and he made the night 10x better with his singing, presence and charm! Angelo's stage presence is amazing and along with his voice, will make any event a glamorous and fantastic one!
He belted out many of Frank Sinatra's, Bobby Darin's and Dean Martin's greatest hits flawlessly and was very helpful by taking pictures and offering to help anyway he could when he wasn't singing. Angelo will be my first choice for my future occasions when I strive to make the night special and memorable.

I apologize that my group did not stop talking while "Frank" was singing, but many positive comments.
Frank Sinatra Impersonator
Angelo did an amazing job performing for our residents. They were so happy with all of the music choices and were raving about it long after he was finished. I highly recommend Angelo for an amazing show filled with classics.

Thank you, Humberto. It was an honor to serenade Nathalia, the rest of your wonderful family & friends. Happy Holidays to you and all!
Best always,
Angelo
Don’t even know where to begin, First off great communication, Angelo contacted me and made sure we were on the same page about everything, he definitely wanted to make sure everything was perfect and went smooth and of course we absolutely loved the whole performance! He sings so beautiful and we just loved his style! And the Frank trivia at the end just topped it for us! And most importantly the birthday loved him! Thank you Angelo for everything!!!
Angelo and the band were great! Our original event was cancelled due to COVID and luckily he was available for my 2nd date. He was so nice about the reschedule and was very responsive the whole time!
My theme was “old Hollywood glam” and Lets Be Frank did not disappoint when it came to looking the part! The band looked and sounded like the 1840s bands I see on tv! I was so impressed and happy with all of it! Angelo even brought and old school microphone! The guests raved about the band all night!

Response from Let Me Be Frank:
Thank you so much, Tameka and Jason! We had a blast entertaining you and guests during your elegant reception at Hotel Californian. May you have a beautiful, blissful life together!
Angelo has an incredible voice and sounds just like the singers of the songs he sang. He was polite, prompt, flexible and he was enjoyed by all. I would highly recommend him.

Was great.

It was a special evening. Angelo was great.
1950s Era Entertainment
Angelo drove quite a distance at a very fair price to sing happy birthday to my grandmother at her 95th birthday. It was a surprise, he couldn’t have been more professional, more communicative, or made 17 ladies happier. Sang a few songs, delivered flowers, and was a gem throughout!
He really made our event special
Crooner, Frank Sinatra Impersonator, Jazz Singer
Great music and singing. Fun person, interaction was great.
Crooner
His energy, his look, his personality, and especially his voice left us all captivated. I made an incredible decision by choosing him. He was respectful, classy and extremely entertaining. We would definitely hire him again, so much so that I want to already have another party. At one point one of my friends looks at singer and said “oh my God! I thought it was a CD” loved his performance
:)
Angelo was absolutely spectacular. The elegance he brought to our affair was jaw dropping. His entrance so suave, immaculate, smooth voice and he is very handsome. He sent all the women into a frenzy. One poor lady had to be caught, she nearly hit the floor. His voice was mesmerizing to the audience. No one took their eyes off of him during the performance. He was very professional. The look, the class was just spot on. I had two other performers but he is the one people are talking about today. He made sure he gave special attention to the party girl, collected information on her favorite songs. Showed up on time and prepared. We got more than we bargained for. I would hire him again and again.
We worked with Angelo for my step-dads retirement party after working in the deli business for 70 years! We had the idea of hiring a performer last minute and are so thankful that Angelo was available! He worked with us on picking out the perfect tribute songs for my step dad (who is a big Frank Sinatra fan) and was a HUGE hit at the party. Everybody loved him and he sang beautifully. I definitely recommend working with Angelo!

Angelo was fantastic. Not only is he an awesome singer but a great MC. He is very personable and brought our party to life. Thanks Angelo can't wait to book you again.

Thank you for the great review, Anthony. Singing at your party was a pleasure and I wish you and your family an excellent 2018!
We loved having Angelo join us for our Client Appreciation Holiday Event. Our clients greatly enjoyed his performance and he took our event to the next level! Angelo effortless wove into the event and our event scheduling and even adjusted his playlist to include Happy Birthday for one of our guests. We would highly recommend Let Me Be Frank and would book him again in the future! Thank you, Angelo!

I hired Angelo to sing and be the MC for my mother's 90th birthday celebration. His performance was great, singing lovely, and was very responsive to the group. He was also a pleasure to work with. He was very responsible and communicative and worked with my requests. I couldn't think of a better person to hire! I highly recommend him.

We celebrated a triple Anniversary event at our senior community in Santa Barbara, CA. Let Me Be Frank and his band provided a very entertaining evening of music and song, and our residents thoroughly enjoyed their performance. Would welcome Let Me Be Frank back anytime. Thank you!

Thank you for booking me and the band, and for the wonderful review, Jodi! The whole experience of performing at The Samarkand was a pleasure. You and the residents were so kind and welcoming, and I am honored that you would welcome us back!
Angelo was incredible! He was our main act for our Legends of Vegas Casino Night; our guests loved him; very talented, interacted with our guests and showgirls, and even did a duet with our Elvis impersonator. We'll definitely be calling again next year!

Response from Let Me Be Frank:
Hi Tina, thank you so much for your great review and for having me perform at your event on Friday! It was a pleasure bing there and everyone was so friendly and welcoming. I'd be honored to entertain there again. May you and all at The University Club have a wonderful Thanksgiving!

Let Me Be Frank was wonderful! His voice exceeded our expectations, he came dressed perfectly for the event, sang songs appropriate for the ballroom Dane crowd, was on time, and very professional. I will definitely be hiring him again.

Response from Let Me Be Frank:
Thank you for hiring me and for the great review, Deborah!!
This guy is FIVE STARS!! Our event was for a 90th birthday and the theme was "Old Hollywood Glamour" & in attendance were TV & movie directors/producers, writers, professional entertainers, family & friends of all ages. EVERYONE was thoroughly entertained and pleased as we listened, danced and sang along!!! A real class act! I highly recommend him, you won't be disappointed :)
Frank Sinatra Impersonator, Crooner
We hosted an 80th bday party for my Mother in Law, and so glad that we chose "Let Me Be Frank"! Well, first, my MIL was just thrilled and tickled pink to coming pretty darn close to having a private concert with Frank Sinatra. Angelo was wonderful with the crowd and made the birthday celebrant feel sooooo special. It topped off the evening nicely
My MIL is still bragging about the party and being serenaded by "Frank Sinatra". Thank you so much!
Frank Sinatra Impersonator, Crooner
"Let Me Be Frank" was by far the highlight of our event! He was so sweet and talented and our guests absolutely loved him. He was very professional and punctual from his correspondence about booking, to his arrival on the day of. He really was everything we hoped for and more. I highly recommend him for your entertainment needs at your next event. I know we will be hiring him again, as it was truly a pleasure to have worked with him. Thank you so much again!
Frank Sinatra Impersonator, Crooner
We were very happy with "Let Me Be Frank", He was professional; pleasant; and passionate about his work.
Most of all, all my guests were entertained and I have never seen my mother-in-law danced like that!
I genuinely recommend "Let Me be Frank".
Frank Sinatra Impersonator
Angelo was professional from start to finish! He arrived on time and well-prepared. His voice was outstanding and my husband's mother swooned through the entire set list of pitch perfect Sinatra songs. I cannot recommend Angelo enough for your party or event. From his initial quote, to his emailed questions/responses, to his final performance, he was professional, personable and delightful every step of the way! Bravo Angelo/"Frank"!!
Frank Sinatra Impersonator, Crooner
He was fantastic. I wanted to hire someone to sing a few Sinatra songs while I danced with my girlfriend before I proposed. He was more than capable of handling the job. Not only did he show up early to help set the scene, but he went above and beyond his duties. I have no doubt in saying that he can satisfy any event's needs.
Crooner
Response from Let Me Be Frank:
Singing at this event was an honor and I was so grateful to serenade two people who are so much in
love. It was a moving experience and I'm happy that my service was so greatly appreciated.
"Let Me Be Frank" written and performed by Mr. Divino, told a heartwarming and true story of the legendary Frank Sinatra. From beginning to end I couldn't stop tapping my feet under the dinner table and felt the same buzz from everyone else in the room. The show was perfectly entertaining as well as informative, complete with family photos documenting Frank's life. Mr. Divino takes command of the stage and took me on a ride that I didn't want to end. A truely awesome evening and a must see for all Frank Sinatra fans.
I have seen this show and LOVED IT! Angelo does an excellent job singing, story telling, and cracking jokes. Find his next show and go; you won't be sorry!

What to Expect
Angelo works with you to make your event the best it can possibly be! You can either send him a list of your favorite tunes, or let Angelo craft a hit-packed set list to have you and your guests calling out for more! He shows up in plenty of time to set up his sound system, dressed for the event, (weather permitting) and works with the event host, on your schedule. His rave reviews show that Angelo aims for greatness and delivers just that, consistently!
If you and your group would like a more theatrical experience, here are some details about Angelo's one-man Sinatra stage shows. The "Let Me Be Frank" show runs 75 minutes straight through, chronicling Frank Sinatra's dynamic life, from his precarious Hoboken birth to the heights of early stardom. The show frankly conveys his scandal-ridden early love life and points up what caused his premature fall from grace and popularity. The show resolves with the return of Frank's massive success and happiness with his fourth wife, Barbara. More than 20 songs coinciding with the Sinatra story are sung throughout the show, demonstrating the broad arc of his music catalog. You'll be amazed at how well the songs in the show move his life story forward! "Let Me Be Frank" can either run straight through, or with one intermission. More musical sets can be performed for longer events, at a 3 hour maximum.
"Let Me Be Frank" or his more recent show, "Sinatra 101" can be performed with piano accompaniment or a trio, depending on client budget. Larger bands can be arranged, including a horn section, upon request. Brief appearances are available as an option and recorded accompaniment can be used for events with limited space and more modest budgets. A portion of either show can also be performed with recorded accompaniment. Most clients have booked Angelo solo, with recorded music and the reviews show a high rate of client satisfaction.
Angelo has a wide repertoire, including selections by Bobby Darin, Tony Bennett and others. He can also perform at wedding ceremonies, memorials and for groups that like to dance, Angelo can add Latin numbers for ballroom dancing!
About
Angelo Divino earned a rave review in NYC-based Cabaret Scenes Magazine for his original live show, “Let Me Be Frank,” which celebrates the life, career and music of Frank Sinatra! In New York, Angelo sang with The Rainbow Room Orchestra at Rockefeller Center, and lead vocals with The Duke Ellington Legacy Band at Birdland.
In Los Angeles, Angelo performed his shows at the nation’s longest running Cabaret, “The Gardenia,” and has sung at numerous Southern California venues, including The Jonathan Club, La Cumbre Country Club in Santa Barbara, Hotel Casa Del Mar, Catalina Bar and Grill and at The Arthur Newman Theatre in Palm Desert.
Angelo's jazz album- "Love A to Z" features original songs which he can also perform, along with his repertoire from the Great American Songbook.
Here's what Grady Harp, Hall of Fame Top 500 Reviewer, recently wrote about a live "Love A to Z" performance, and about the album:
"California vocalist Angelo Divino performs with a twinkle in his eye, a laid-back polish in his delivery, and an easy-going charm—with both the audience and his musicians—that make for a very entertaining performance. Angelo sings from the core of the lyrics as well as from his heart. He is not a trickster – he just delivers completely.

Influences & Inspiration
After performing in a Duke Ellington review, I was moved to write my first show. Realizing that a stage show chronicling Duke's fascinating life and career didn't exist, I hastily went about the task. Soon after creating "Lucky So and So," (referencing a classic Duke song title) I read about Sinatra's life and wrote my "Let Me be Frank" show. What I learned about both Music Giants surpassed what I could've ever imagined, and the music was simply awe inspiring. I am also inspired by these performers: Bobby Darin, Nat King Cole, Dean Martin, Tony Bennett, Mel Torme and Johnny Hartman, among others.
Setup Requirements
A Piano (prefered, though my pianist can bring keyboard, if necessary).
Electrical outlets within a reasonable distance from the performance area.
A stage, or indoor space, or covered, heated outdoor area (in cold or inclement weather), adequate lighting and a stool for props.
Social
