Stay Tuned, the self-proclaimed Ultimate Television Rock Tribute Experience, was formed over 3 years ago by lead singer and keyboardist Matt Krahlman. His vision of rearranging the influential television themes of his youth into a completely different context became a reality when drummer / vocalist Fred Donaldson and bassist / vocalist Randy Williams joined Matt for their first rehearsal in a small practice studio just south of Safeco Field. Since then, the band has been musically inseparable and has delighted audiences and fellow musicians alike with a musical experience that can only be described as "... like sausage...". Fred has since left the band to pursue his lifelong dream of guano farming and Stu has joined the band as Stay Tuned's formidable drummer.
Their onstage energy coupled with the emotional connection that audiences have with their eclectic collection of musical material have earned Stay Tuned a growing reputation as one of the NorthWest's premier acts. In addition to performing to enthusiastic crowds up and down the coast, they have been featured on The BJ Shea Experience on 100.7 The Buzz in Seattle, and were nominated for a 2005 Seattle Weekly Music Award for Best Tribute Act. Ian "Prime Time" Sterling of KBSG in Seattle has said about Stay Tuned, "... if these guys were playing and I were sitting there drinking at the bar, I'd think they were the greatest band on earth.".
Every wedding and party needs some form of entertainment, so why not a DJ? I am a mobile disk jockey who provides sound, music and lighting for any event. I'll make your wedding or party a memorable one, while having fun at what I enjoy doing - music!
I have over 9,000 songs to spin, and that library is growing daily. Along with playing music, I can make general announcements, entertain, provide sound and lighting for other people, and work with other vendors at an event to make sure everything runs smoothly.
Clients are offered a free consultation meeting (in person if close to Eugene, OR; over phone or through e-mail if not) to discuss my services, music that should be played and any other details that will need to be gone over before the event. After that we can stay in contact through e-mail and phone to make any changes or add last minute requests to your playlist.
If you don't live in Eugene and are still interested in my services, don't worry - I'll travel! My free consulatation meeting can take place over the phone or through e-mails, and I'll work just as hard to make sure that your event rocks!

The Club 7 Jazz Band is this generation's answer to the call for the continuation of traditional jazz music. These four college-age musicians come from different locations along the west coast and with their diverse musical influences they have developed a unique style while maintaining the essence of traditional jazz.
Bob Draga, Titan Hot 7 Clarinetist (10/26/2005): "It is nice to see musicians that started out as youth players in the youth jazz programs now working professionally! Club 7 Jazz Band understands the importance of a great jazz program and also understands the concept of being both musical and entertaining! I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Club 7 Jazz Band for any jazz festival!"
Club 7 is intent on making an impact on the world of traditional jazz while at the same time inspiring others to join in the effort to keep the music alive. At this point this group is very interested in performing anywhere, everywhere, and as often as they can. Their travels have lead them all throughout Oregon and have recently extended southward to the Sacramento Jazz Jubilee. Having sold numerous copies of their first CD, A Closer Walk (2005), their next CD will be released early 2007. This is one band that no one will want to miss as they climb the musical ladder.
Our CD, "A Closer Walk", is available. If you are interested check out our website, www.club7jazzband.com, for ordering information.
