1940’s
We perform our 1940’s music in concert format, or we can stroll from table to table at a restaurant or party, and we can do sing-along style. Our venues include private parties, including the Montgomery College Faculty Dinner and the Maryland DAR Annual Meeting, nursing homes, retirement communities, the VA hospital (pictured below), and churches. We can do a capella pieces or accompanied pieces. We can bring our own piano accompanist, the talented “Ginny”, and our own sound system, as needed for the venue.
