Kathleen Monson - Classical Duo - Chicago
Event Type: Wedding, Cantor, Funeral Etc.
1st March 2023
View This Profile - Kathleen Monson - Classical Duo - Chicago
Since arriving on our doorstep in September of 2021, Kathleen has been an infusion of happiness, an example of a truly faith-filled Cantor, and a great singer whose ability to switch musical genres at the blink of an eye is uncommon and very much valued. She is a supportive team player, who can sublimate herself to do the job required, even though her own talents could do much more at any given moment. As performers go, she is a unicorn, a combination of talents that make up perhaps 1% of all singers that I have worked with in my 45 years as a professional musician. She is adept at connecting with an audience and is a true professional, not just a great singer.

View This Profile - Nick Muilaert - Pop Band - Chicago
Wow! Nick made our party. He took my parents right back to 40 years ago, playing their classic wedding jams. This anniversary was a big one and we definitely picked the perfect musician. He nailed our set list, took requests, and was so sincere about wanting everyone to be jamming out having a great time. Seriously impressive voice and skills...not to mention he braved the late night cold weather since our party was outdoors. Would recommend and hire again! Thanks Nick!!

Jerry performed for us at my moms 75th birthday party and did not disappoint. We are so glad that we hired him. My Mom and all the guests had a great time. My text messages and Facebook have been blowing up with compliments stating how much fun they had and how great the music was.
Love the music, love the clothes, love the impersonations, love his personality.
If we ever need an entertainer again, Jerry is our man. Thank you. I took more videos instead of pictures.
