Hello!
My name is Jeff Manfredini and I am a full-time musician from North Central Illinois. I perform at events including birthdays, weddings, anniversaries, corporate events, etc, averaging over 165 gigs/year. I typically perform a variety of music for multiple age groups and backgrounds.
Along with playing acoustic guitar and singing, I also play harmonica and foot percussion.
I can be described as acoustic Pop/Rock/Folk/Americana covers & originals. Rolling Stones, Johnny Cash, Bob Dylan, Willie Nelson, Paul Simon, The Temptations, Neil Young, Steve Miller Band, Tom Petty, The Cars, The Cure, Simple Minds, Nirvana, Amy Winehouse, The Killers, Coldplay - just to name a few 🎶
Jeff has played at the venue I manage several times over the last couple of years, and we love having him here! Not only is he super talented, he's an all around great guy and everyone, guests and staff, enjoy when he plays for our public events! His set list is familiar and approachable and we all enjoy the energy he brings to his performances!
Jeff has performed at many of our events at Camp Aramoni and is an absolute delight to work with. Jeff is professional, on-time, fun and talented. He can play a variety of different genres while still catering to diverse crowds. Our team at Camp Aramoni HIGHLY recommends Jeff Manfredini for your next event!
I have booked Jeff many times over the years to play on the veranda and he never disappoints. Jeff has great crowd engagement and a wide range of songs he plays that keeps crowds of all ages dancing all night.
We had Jeff at our annual party in August and he did a great job! Wide variety of music! He chose songs by the crowd's reaction and kept the fun going his whole set. He even learned my daughter's favorite song for us!
Highly recommend!

I will provide a broad range of music spanning decades and genres, to offer something familiar and enjoyable for a wide range of audiences.
As a one man band, I provide vocals, rhythm, lead, and percussion to the songs I do, avoiding doing simplified or karaoke-style versions of songs. All of this is done without the use of pre-recorded tracks or loopers. I believe this provides an increasingly unique experience for the audience, both acoustically and visually.
I will arrive early, with ample time to set up a professional sound and lighting system to suit the venue size and the clients needs.
The sound quality will be full and clear, but will leave room for your guests to chat with each other.
I will keep open communication with the person of contact to ensure everything goes as planned.
Since being given an acoustic guitar at the age of 12, playing music has always been an integral part of my life. From my high school garage band days of playing juice bars or halls that we rented out, to my college days of playing solo acoustic sets at coffee shops and bars, to joining various original and cover bands as the lead guitar, harmonica, bass, or banjo player, to mixing sound for 9-piece bands for weddings and corporate events, to forming my own bands that I fronted, they have all been valuable experiences that are a part of what I do now as a solo performer.
I am thrilled to be able to share my passion for music and provide a top quality experience for my clients!
· I require (1 ) dedicated 15 amp AC power outlet for most situations (one without any appliances also running on it). If the stage or performance area is further than 50ft away, please let me know and I can bring additional extension cords.
· If performing OUTSIDE, I require a covered playing area that is level and dry. If I am to set up in a grassy area, I prefer it to be in a flat, dry area, as it becomes difficult to perform on unlevel surfaces and dangerous to perform in damp or wet areas.
I can be prepared to meet the venues limitations (if some exist), but I would need to know ahead of time so as to bring additional equipment or supplies.
