A message from the owner... 

​

Like most aspiring performers, my journey to become a professional singer had very humble beginnings. Over 20 years ago I gave my first solo performance in front of a large crowd and I was hooked.  I sang anywhere I was welcomed, toured with bands, recorded an album, did some TV and Radio, and eventually started my own entertainment business full time in 2009. Now, over 500 weddings and several thousand successful events later, I look back and am very grateful for the many valuable lessons the event industry has taught me. Much of my work ethic, commitment to excellence, and desire to please stems from all the experience I have gained in this industry as an entertainer. One of the best lessons I learned early on is that people treasure vendors that treat the client's event as if it were their own.

​

My #1 goal has always been to exceed client expectations with memorable, high quality performances because I truly love what I do. I have frequently witnessed the results of this as clients happily tell their friends and family about us long after the event is over. I am thankful that my clients have blessed me with success in my chosen profession thereby allowing me the opportunity to continue to pursue my passion.

 

Becoming a national act in recent years has opened doors I never imagined possible. From booking events across the U.S. 1-2 years in advance, to having clients literally change their wedding date just to book me. It has been quite a journey. However, as the demand for my service continues to increase across the U.S., my availability for local events has occasionally been a challenge. 

 

This was a clear sign that it was time for my business to grow in exciting new ways. My eye for talent went to work. I knew that I could not simply bring on just anyone.

I needed to acquire a roster of highly skilled, motivated, and experienced artists and train them to do things my way. A proven method that has made me not simply survive but thrive in my particular sector of the event industry. 

 

With that said, I am proud to introduce my incredible staff to you!

​

You will be hard pressed to find Singers, Djs and Musicians more talented than the ones with Ace In the Hole Entertainment. Why can I say that with confidence? Because I hand pick the very best entertainers and talent available and then personally interview, audition, screen, and train them to ensure they will be every bit as amazing as our clients have come to expect from us. Our artists are then vetted via a 1-2 year process that solidifies that they will be consistently good when they are booked. Every event. Every time. Period.

 

We hope that you too will be another name we can add to the thousands of completely satisfied clients we have gained over the years. Give us the opportunity to show you what we can do and I personally guarantee that you will not be disappointed.We look forward to working with you!
