When three tribute
artists, in a Las Vegas-style dinner show take over the stage, then suddenly one
is back in the 60s on the Las Vegas strip, and remembering 'OCEANS 11'. Their
interpretation of these three great entertainers is so life-like, that one has
to really look twice to make sure one is not dreaming.
Make no mistake about it! By the time these performers exit the stage, their
audience is standing and demanding an encore. The chemistry of these artists is
extremely contagious.
The true essence of "The Sands Trio" is that pure energy and spontaneity of
their performance. These guys don't put it on, they bring it out. They are the
real deal with that crazy cuckoo style. They are ready to bring down the house.
As each perform of The Sands Trio comes back to take centre stage, the audience
waits in anticipation. Leaving their heart in San Francisco, playing with “Sam’s
Song” or dancing to “Me and My Shadow” these entertainers show a rare
camaraderie as they toss one liners back and forth, filling their glasses with
that special bourbon..
FRANK, SAMMY AND DEAN ARE BACK!
John Morello was born and raised in Toronto and his Italian
heritage helped give an insight into that famous Crochetti (Dean Martin) family
background. His portrayal of Dean Martin delivers a charismatic performance that
matches Dean's mesmerizing voice and charmingly seductive character. He has
people believing that Dean still walks among us. From Volare to That's Amore,
John proves that Everybody Loves Somebody Sometime bringing his audience to
their feet singing, dancing & laughing, and wanting an encore performance.
Rick Sonata is a native of Toronto though people swear he has
to be a relative of that famous man from Hoboken, NY. He has performed his one
man Sinatra show with several symphonies. When Rick Sonata as Frank Sinatra
walks onto the stage and starts to sing, the audience is enthralled. Old Blue
Eyes is once again in the house here to stay. People thoroughly enjoy going back
in time with songs such as Fly Me to The Moon, The Way You Look Tonight and most
of all, My Way. Appearing as Sinatra, he steps right in character and captures
the moment you'll all want to share.
Christopher Hayles is a proud Jamaican, who now resides in
Toronto. His portrayal of Sammy Davis, Jr. is simply astounding. Chris says that
he has to buy his clothes from "Toys R Us" because of his diminutive size, but
that doesn't stop him from sharing his boundless energy and charm as he portrays
Sammy. He captures your heart as he sings some of Sammy's famous songs such as "Candyman,
Old Black Magic, I’ve got To Be Me and Mr Bo Jangles".

"Everyone enjoyed the show so much. They are still raving!!! I can't say enough
abut the show, the guys were great and the way they interacted with the guests
was great. I believe there were ladies "swooning". I had one guest ask when you
would be coming back and that has never happened to me before and I have done a
lot of events that involve talent. I want to thank you again for making our
event a success and traveling the great distance you did and for putting on a
terrific show."
