We don't sound like complete Hacks: – From TV’s Star Search, to the Paris Opera House, to Television & Radio and 1000’s of International Hotel & Country Club Appearances- John’s vocals & music are unsurpassed. And, he arranges all the music & vocals for the band, ensuring consistent & reliable quality. JP's done more than one gig: – having performed for 1000’s of events, from Gala’s for U.S. Senators, Legislators & Governors, to Conventions of International Corporations, to upscale receptions for Brides & Grooms of all ethnicities, to Mitzvah celebrations of all magnitudes – by playing the right songs at the right time with NO time in-between, & keeping any strategically-placed band break to a minimum or eliminating it altogether! We don't just stand there: – John’s “way” with an audience puts people at ease. He can take control when it’s needed, break the ice when needed, and always put a smile on guest’s faces. You don't inspire fun if you're not having fun yourself - We love what we do and it shows. His kids think he's amusing: - Playing good music all night is great, but being personable, friendly and fun is better. Having the good sense to know what is tasteful is even better yet. They can play something newer than "Celebration": – Music from the 40’s to LOTS of music from the New Millennium SOUNDS like the ORIGINAL ARTIST – You might not want Glen Miller or the Black Eyed Peas, but it’s all there if needed. We don't act like we're doing you a favor: – Your Wedding Party or Gala is quite possibly a ONCE IN A LIFETIME event for you. John understands this & performs EVERY event with the highest level of commitment, enthusiasm & caring. John might even know what's going on BEFORE the event!: – Pre-event consultation starts BEFORE you book the John Parker Band. And continues to the phone call the week of your event to finalize all the details. We're available ANYTIME to discuss songs, order of events, announcements, etc…and to offer suggestions on how to best utilize his service the day of your event and how best to make your event flow properly... He doesn't completely butcher everyone's name: – Emceeing is professional. Names are pronounced CORRECTLY, (we make SURE beforehand - and all introductions use proper etiquette and flow with the polish and class discriminating clients prefer. The band doesn't come to take breaks: - Breaks in life are great, but not band breaks at your party! We typically strategically place ONE break into your party or can even eliminate our breaks altogether. It just seems so much more FUN when the band is playing! We don't throw a tantrum if something changes: – As events progress, things can change. You need a professional that can change right along with your event, keep cool & collected and seamlessly adapt accordingly. Our Equipment doesn't come from K-Mart: – John Parker owns ALL of the common equipment for the band. This first-class, concert quality setups and John’s keeping ultimate control of the production assures you your music will sound clear & full… (and in stereo!) And that it's kept at THE RIGHT volume required for any given event. Other people actually think we're OK: – Read excerpts from clients online or in “Dear John Letters” - hundreds of testimonials to John’s performances at their events. Call ALL of his clients! Nobody does it better! We cringe at the words "Musician" or "Agent" too: - John is a classy, well spoken and quite successful family gentleman who happens to earn his living entertaining for special events. He is not any of the things stereotypically attributed to Musicians or Booking Agents. Thank God. A regular guy who's sense of personal responsibility and work ethic is beyond compare, JP comfortably fits into any situation smartly & seamlessly. And he's seen enough lazy used car salesmen types to last a lifetime. John Parker gave up his job at Wendy's: – 100% of John Parker’s livelihood is ENTERTAINMENT. His working hours are devoted to the arranging, producing, & performing of music – for special events just like yours! This dedication to his business is why you can rest assured your event will go the way it should. His dictionary contains the word "integrity": - What matters most in life is integrity. Being true to the clients he’s committed to by making their special event the best it can be is the highest priority for John. Integrity means John Parker does what he says - you can always count on him to make your event all that it can be.
