Jimy Rogers and THE MAUDS: http://www.themauds.com are BACK ! ... Yes, the legendary Midwest R&B / SOUL Group has re-united under the leadership of founder, JIMY ROGERS. Mauds music? It's timeless, soulful and exciting. Baby-Boomers may remember their hits "HOLD ON" or "SOUL DRIPPIN' " from the late 1960's. These are still on the band's playlist. However the Mauds are no nostalgia act. The timeless resurgent R&B sound has assured the eight piece band an even younger and bigger market for the new millennium.

The Chicago Rat Pack is an Incredible Tribute to the Rat Pack! Tony Oceanas Dean Martin, Jack D'Amico as Frank Sinatra, Lonnie Parlor as Sammy Davis Jr. are here to remind us of the days when swing was the thing, broads were ring a ding ding, and nothing compared to the Copa Room at the Sands in Vegas. So come on out and see the Chicago Rat Pack, take a trip back in time, and hear the greatest songs of our time performed as the greatest entertainers of our time, The Rat Pack, did them. Don't be a drag, man, grab your doll or guy and come out and swing with The Chicago Rat Pack, Baby!
