We love playing for good causes, and this is one of the best. The Union League Boys & Girls Clubs 37th Annual Gala raised more than $260,000 to benefit at-risk youth. It was a magical night, with donors working together to help children in need reach their full potential as productive, responsible, caring citizens.

Here are a few tunes that feature Dayna & Jae!

Stacey & Simeon’s wedding was pure joy — for everyone involved. We’re still smiling 🙂

Artistrings pop string quartet entertained during cocktail hour with the newest tunes from Imagine Dragons, Katy Perry, Coldplay and Lorde. We opened the ballroom for dinner to the impact of the full band, and check out what happened:

Stacey’s mom sent this a few weeks after the wedding:

Hi Chris & Carol,
What can I say! The most wonderful music we had at our daughter’s wedding!!!! People are still talking about you both and all your members! What a joy!

Congratulations to all!!

Chicago Greek-American Band Performed for Hellenic League Debutante Cotillion and Crystal Ball at Chicago Hilton and Towers

Chicago Hilton & Towers

We were absolutely honored to provide entertainment for the Hellenic League Debutante Cotillion and Crystal Ball. There were so many amazing moments, from the presentation of the Debutantes and their Escorts by emcee Kim Vatis, to their choreographed trip through the history of Hollywood, to a killer dance party that catapulted the night into an after-party. We had a ball and can’t wait to do it all over again 🙂

Jae & Tim, half of our amazing vocal team

We decided to play some Greek music too, it’s this little hobby we have. All we do is add a few Greek musicians to our rhythm section, and BOOM. Greek.

Hello out there!

Although this wonderful wedding got buried on our to-do list for the past several months, we’re so happy to share it with you now!

Dancing started with this tune:

And then all bets were off. Maggie and Dean’s guests came to party!

This one deserves its own post. Great new tune, and Barry & Dayna sound fantastic on it, don’t you think?

Always a fantastic time to visit our Alma Mater and perform! Here’s the very cool space for Abby & John’s wedding dinner

After a beautiful meal, guests transitioned into the domed space for dancing, and we had a blast.

This Bruno Mars tune knocked us out when we heard it on Saturday Night Live a couple of weeks ago. Here’s our first time though it — what do you think? Our guess is that this is going to be the hottest new tune of the year. WE LOVE IT!!

It’s not very often when the GROOM sits in with us – how cool is this?! Yeah John!
