Brandon Wardell

I pride myself on professionalism. I make the event about the client, not about me. I bring high-quality entertainment suited to the environment as requested by the client. My dress is also suited to the environment and can range from casual to black tie and tux.

As a solo artist for parties, I own high-quality tracks and trigger them myself. I am also available for a cocktail atmosphere with a piano player.

I bring professional equipment with wireless microphones that can be used for the event speakers for weddings, anniversaries, birthdays announcements etc.

With my band Under the Streetlamp, we can accommodate any size venue. Sound system requirements will be negotiated with the price of the event.

A 5-time Tony and 4-time Grammy Award nominee with one Tony win and a proud member of the Recording Academy, Brandon is equally at home in the spotlight or behind the scenes, and loves creative endeavors in all forms. Brandon specializes in creating shows specific for any event or venue. He’s Performed, Produced and Recorded all over the world at a variety of venues and events including: The Hollywood Bowl, The Merle Watson Festival, Radio City Music Hall, Stephen Sondheim’s Birthday Celebration at Avery Fisher Hall with the New York Philharmonic, The Whiskey A Go Go, The Bratislava Symphony Orchestra, The Kennedy Center, The Beacon Theatre, Time Square New Year’s Eve Celebration and hundreds of other venues worldwide. Brandon’s musical compositions and voice can also be heard in many films and commercials. He is one of the Producers behind the hit show DELUSION, a live, interactive horror show in Los Angeles (at the time Executive Produced by Neil Patrick Harris), that is now a virtual reality experience by Skybound Entertainment (THE WALKING DEAD). Brandon was also on the production staff and performed in the hit shows Accomplice: New York and Accomplice: LA created by Immersive Theatre mainstay Tom Salamon. He spends most of his time now as Musician and Music Producer. His band, Under the Streetlamp, is based out of Chicago and has 4 PBS Specials that air nationally. The band tours internationally on a perpetual basis.

Brandon is a proud member of the Broadway Inspirational Voices Choir (who won a Special Tony Award for Excellence in Theatre) and The Recording Academy. He made his Broadway debut in JAMES JOYCE’S THE DEAD beside Christopher Walken and Marni Nixon (the singing voice behind the biggest stars of film’s Golden era including: Audrey Hepburn, Natalie Woods and Deborah Kerr) who later became his go-to voice teacher. He appeared in the Tony Award winning musical THROUGHLY MODERN MILLIE opposite Sutton Foster. He continued his Broadway performing career in the Tony Award Winning production of ASSASSINS with Denis O’Hare and Neil Patrick Harris, GOOD VIBRATIONS the Beach Boys Musical, and CATCH ME IF YOU CAN. He played Scott in the hit Off-Broadway show EVIL DEAD THE MUSICAL where he set a new record for onstage deaths by a performer in a week (48 deaths). Brandon was featured in RENT at the Hollywood Bowl, which also starred Wayne Brady, Nichole Scherzinger, Vanessa Hudgens, Aaron Tveit and Rachel Harris. Wardell performed live for an audience of more than a million people, with a television audience of millions more at the Times Square New Year’s Eve Celebration.

For large events, I will need a professional PA and lights provided depending on the stage. We will discuss this and come up with a setup that we agree on.
