Jane is not only a great lead singer but she is also extremely easy and fun to work with during the party prep. You will feel from the start that this band will make your party a big success.
The band was wonderful. Everyone enjoyed listening to and dancing to their music. They played an hour session of all Grease songs which are all the old favorites that everyone could sing to. The rest of the party they played a mix of 50s and rock-n-roll songs. They are all great musicians so no matter what your party theme is, I am sure they will be able to support it.
Thank you Jane!!!!

Response from Jane Allyson Music:
Thank you Pat. I'm so glad we were able to meet all your party needs. We hope to work with you again!
Jane
I am very biased when it comes to musical entertainers and their abilities, especially when it is a work function and my reputation is on the line. They have to communicate extremely well in advance of the event, show up on-time, handle themselves professionally, be flexible for subtle changes beyond anyone's control, and (most importantly for me) they have to be very talented.
Gina Martini is all of that, and I cannot stress how happy I am that she was our entertainment for this work event!
Finding a mix of music that will appeal to everyone is no easy task, and Gina put together a program that had something for everyone. She was so much more than I had hoped for, and quite honestly, videos do not always present an accurate picture. Her clips and information were enough to secure the booking, but she is even more impressive live and in person than her videos!
I cannot recommend her highly enough! If anyone asks for an entertainer for their function/party/whatever, Gina Martini is the first person I would recommend. She was wonderful as a solo artist, and I am looking forward to seeing her with her band whenever possible.
I am very, very happy with Gina Martini, and truly believe that anyone who decides to hire her will not be disappointed in the least!

I work in long term care for seniors. and Jane has been performing for the residents at my facility for years now. She is a friendly, positive, and energetic person with immense vocal talent. She always manages to rouse the room into dancing, singing, and fun even when the seniors are in a low mood before she arrives. She always comes up with a unique program of songs that keep the seniors entertained and looking forward to her shows week after week. In addition, I have been to a variety of Jane's shows outside my facility including cover bands and Jazz performances and her talent and voice always blows me away. Professionally, Jane is extremely punctual and well organized and has been very transparent and flexible throughout our working relationship. I strongly recommend working with her!

We hired Jane Allyson and her Whiskey Kitten Band to provide dance music for our fundraiser dinner dance. They played pre-recorded dinner music during the meal as requested, and then came onstage for two hours of a great time! They were phenomenal. They played all the best classic rock and dance hits that our group loved, and they kept our members dancing all night, which is exactly what we wanted. Jane's vocals were spot on and the band was perfect. We've seen them perform at a nearby club in the past and they packed the place. We will hire them again!

THE JANE ALLYSON TRIO:
A vocalist, a bassist and a percussionist, this talented trio covers many party songs and is enhanced with professional backing tracks to fill in the missing instruments. A nicely priced alternative to a bigger band.
