Overview

The Company Bees is a duo based in Rhode Island that recreates the era of the 1940s through song and story. We perform over 20 songs that were written or made popular during WWII, as well as a medley of all the Armed Forces songs, which is always an emotional highlight for our audiences. We also have a separate Christmas show if you are interested in hiring us for your holiday event. Many of the most well-known Christmas songs are from the 1940s!

We have performed at many high-profile events throughout the Northeast, in addition to performing with American Cruise Lines for over a decade.

Our travel distance indicates 150 miles, but we are willing to travel worldwide with accommodation.

What to expect

We provide a seamless performance from beginning to end that is generally 60 minutes, but please contact us if you would like to tailor the time to your needs. We arrive an hour prior to performance time with our sound system, signs, and props. We set up our equipment, do a very short sound check, then change into costume. After the performance, we are available to meet with the audience, sell our CDs, then change out of costume. We load out in less than 30 minutes.

We have also been performing with American Cruise Lines for more than a decade.
