Overview
I perform the hits of the 40's thru the 60's such as Frank Sinatra, Bobby Darin, Johnny Mathis, Engelbert Humperdink and also songs by Chicago, Blood Sweat and Tears and a lot of Michael Buble songs. The music I use is Orchestrated back ground tracks and I wear a Tuxedo. I also have a show where I perform with just my guitar and play the songs from the 60's and 70's as well as beach music favorites.

Lonnie was the surprise of my surprise party and BOY did he deliver! I loved his range of music and gregarious personality. I highly, highly recommend him for your event ! Especially if you like crooners! He is reasonably priced, provides a good sound system, and was early. I will use him again in the future.

We hired Lonnie having only seen his youtube video singing with the Salisbury swing band. It was my.parents 60th wedding anniversary--he arrived early, needed very little guidance, and helped us with music for another singer. Everyone really enjoyed his performance, and several people asked for his contact info. We would hire him again without a doubt (and will). Great voice and professional appearance. Easy to work with.

What to Expect
A high energy show with songs you all can sing along with from one of the best song stylist in the State. I can dress very formally or as casually as you choose such as for a pool party.
About
I have been a performer for over 30 years in many categories including the lead singer in a swing band, a classic rock and beach band, lead singer for an 80's band and other venues. My music is taylored to the Baby Boomers who long to hear the great tunes of the 40's to the 60's. I usually wear a tuxedo when I do music for Senior Centers or more formal occasions but if not I do wear black pants with usually a black shirt and or a black suit. Since this is my profession the event organizer can expect me to be on time and be professional at all times. I can provide testimonials if you choose. I have performed across the country in many different bands and I have had some of my original songs played over the radio stations.
Additional Booking Notes
I have my own PA system with CD recording capability that I use. If you need special lighting then you will need to provide it.
