Joe Mancuso Jazz Band from Chesterfield, MO

Joe Mancuso is an Award Winning Vocalist and Recording Artist. He can sing in all vocal styles, but primarily performs as a Jazz, Blues & Pop singer. He is the first call in St. Louis for many fans that are looking for a top notch presentation of jazz standards performed by artists such as Frank Sinatra, Ray Charles, Tony Bennett and the like. He is NOT an imitator or impersonator; Mancuso has a deep love for this music and brings a fresh, contemporary approach to the genre, while respecting and preserving the integrity of the art form that is the American Song Book. Joe only works with world class musicians and can provide premium music for any event. Mancuso performs in various configurations ranging from a duo (Joe with a guitarist or pianist) to a full Big Band. Joe's Award Winning debut album "Cut To The Chase" features 13 Jazz standards and is available on iTunes, Spotify and all the other major online sources. This Album was awarded "Best Record of the Year" by the Riverfront Times (St. Louis, MO) Readers' Poll of 2014. Joe Mancuso and his various groups also perform many of the pop standards of the 1950's through the 1980's; rock and roll, blues, blues-rock, R&B, motown, funk etc. Joe has various premium music packages that can accommodate almost any event. He works with a wide variety of professional "first call" musicians from various genres and can put together almost any type of band to back his Energetic Vocals! A very popular choice for Weddings and Galas is a hybrid band/dj package that includes Joe and his band for 2 to 3 hours, followed by a DJ for 1 to 2 hours(or any combination you need). This is a very popular package as the patrons are presented with world class jazz and or pop standards for the early part of the event; cocktails, dinning and swing dancing; then for the later part of the evening the mood changes to a full blow club scene with the latest dance music for the younger patrons. It's Truly a Win! Win!
