Howdy! My name is Shirley, and I'm a vocalist and entertainer. I have been performing music professionally for nearly forty years. I have sung nearly every kind of music imaginable, in a variety of formats: musical theater; coffee-house folk; singing telegrams; jingles; backing vocalist for large multi-artist concerts; lead singer in rock, top 40, and tribute bands; I've even sung the National Anthem, solo, at Dodger Stadium (twice!). I love music of all kinds. In addition to my live performance experience, I've trained extensively in vocal technique at both college and professional private instruction levels. Sharing music with others is my joy and passion. To that end, I am happy to bring my musical project, shirl JAM, to local audiences in the Sierra Foothills and Sacramento area.
So...what is a shirlJAM, anyway?
Shirley's solo act provides an amazing mix of hits (and unexpected gems) from a variety of genres and decades, ranging from the distant past to the ultra-current.
Accompanied by professionally recorded, radio quality backing tracks, Shirley adds her stellar vocals (as well as a touch of live instrumentation here and there) to a set of music specifically tailored to complement your event or venue. The act is self-contained, with a professional sound system and everything needed to produce a beautiful, high quality sound. With a massive library of tracks to select from (640 songs, give or take), Shirley can customize her performance to enhance any theme or mood.
With more variety than any band can offer, and more life, warmth and fun than a mix tape or d.j. could provide, Shirley's dynamic performance is sure to delight, surprise, and above all, entertain any audience. If it's eclectic you're after, you've found it in a shirl JAM!
