Thank you for a truly spectacular evening. You were not only extremely talented, but professional and curteous as well. Sincerely, -Kirk and Amy
"Frank...you may or may not remember me at Green Dolphin Street one Sunday night about a month ago. My name is John and I am a radio personality in Australia and you introduced me to the crowd! I can't remember when I have enjoyed myself so much. Your swinging interpretations of the music of Martin, Darin and Greco. Superb! And a wonderful trio of musicians backing you. I will definitely be seeking out your venue next time I'm in Chicago!" -John Vertigan Radio Sport 927 Melbourne, Australia

"I didn't get a chance to say it before the end of the night, it was all such a whirlwind, but you and the entire band were wonderful and couldn't have been a better pick for my sister's dream wedding. I want to thank you for contributing to such a great night."

"We just wanted to thank you and the Rat Pack Jazz for an amazing and memorable evening! The band truly set the mood for our wedding reception – classic and elegant. We were so pleased with the package that you put together for us for the evening. The solo pianist was so very talented during both cocktails and dinner – even so much as taking song requests from our guests. And what a way to celebrate our wedding and close the evening than with the 9 piece band! Even weeks after, the compliments and memories are still flooding in from all of our guests. We are sure you will be called upon in the future for another family event. Thank you so much for delivering above and beyond our expectations – we couldn’t have asked for a more wonderful addition to our wedding day!"
Kindest regards,
-Tony and Jackie
"My wife and I were married Nov.19th 2005 we decided to have a smaller but more elegant wedding. We searched for an intimate setting to host our reception and knew that the music must be perfect to truly set the ambience. We searched and talked to many musicians. In our minds there was one that we kept coming back to and that was Frank Lamphere’s Rat Pack Jazz. Frank was a professional right from the start; responsive and diligent in returning calls and answering our questions. His musical repertoire was unmatched. A great voice and great musicians! It was like going back in time 50 years when the music was all that mattered. Frank, as well as his musicians, truly love what they do and bring that passion to their performance. Since we have Italian heritage it was unexpected surprise was that Frank can sing in fluent Italian and not miss a beat. Lets face it some songs are meant to be sung in native Italian. Contemporary songs were performed with an equal amount of mastery. Frank was also very easy to work with during the reception and was a great master of ceremonies. We cannot say enough about our experience and highly recommend Rat Pack Jazz to everyone."
