Tuxedo Junction

When you're choosing a band for your wedding, what's the first thing to look for? Vocal ability is a predominant factor in determining the versatility of a live band. Whether it be a smooth ballad by Barbara Streisand a rock song by Bonnie Raitt, a sultry tune by Toni Braxton, or a swing hit from the 40's, Michelle Gadbois captures the style and the sound of dozens of music's top female vocalists. Michelle sings with a rich, full timbre that is quite distinctive and rather unique among female vocalists performing in this market today. She adds the top voice on the group's four-part and a cappella numbers, and plays Latin percussion instruments or an occasional keyboard part.

His clear, bright tenor voice can be heard covering the gamut from Van Morrison's "Have I Told You lately," to Stevie Ray Vaughan's "Crossfire." Jake's guitar flows easily from one style of music to the next to add a rich texture to the sound of the band. hi addition, Mr. Hulsman is a gifted emcee who brings humor and wit to every occasion.
