About Vendor 

Learn more about this vendor for your event.

Hopscotch is the songwriting and performing duo of Charlie Hiestand and Jean Mishler. Jean sings, Charlie plays keys, and we both write the songs. A small crowd of Seattle sidemen help out- the full band is a ten piece jazz band that includes horns, percussion, and a back-up singer. Part of the genius of Hopscotch is its flexibility; we can go to a gig with the forces appropriate for that gig and have the right effect, from one of us to all ten. We have just released a CD of mostly original material, all of which is identifiable as jazz. But we've been writing, playing, and recording both pop and jazz for years. We are deeply familiar with the Great American Songbook and are very happy playing covers. We are happy to work with clients to get the kind of repertoire they want with the amount of sound they want at a reasonable price. Our original tunes include snappy swing songs, bossa novas, ballads, and more modern beats applied to sophisticated jazz writing. Some times funny, some times serious, the current CD was made to the highest production standards and is being very well received by fans and critics alike. In brief, we are professional, musical, engaging, committed, and great at working with clients to get the results they want.
