A tad bit curious? Listen below.
Huge, we scored both SHERRY McCAMLEY and MARK HARDY as guest vocalists, who will be singin’ to our Big Band beat. both are professional performers who appreciate the unique sound that only a Big Band can make! (Sherry even had her own Big Band before. Just sayin’.)
Did you know the creator of THE FAMILY GUY, Seth McFarlane, is a huge Big Band fan and Big Band singer himself? His show theme is Big Band. In honor of our buddy Seth, we are performing a hot new arrangement of his FAMILY GUY theme.
Seating is Limited. Get your $5 tickets in advance here or, if you really need to, they will be available for you, and your posse, at the door. You can check out the FaceBook event here.
