• Live music professionals for over 20 years with a perfect 100% customer satisfaction! Many of the thank you notes received from past clients are provided here for your review.
• New Feature! We are excited to announce that we now provide a full-time professional engineer for you at every performance! This allows us to ensure that the sound quality, volume level, and lighting at your event are always perfect! You can be assured that our musicians are not awkwardly trying to run the sound and light systems while performing for you on stage. We also provide a “real” state-of-the-art sound system that’s continuously being upgraded for perfect CD quality audio and a new light system with 32 LED arrays for a stage appearance that is absolutely dazzling! You are more than welcome to use our PA and wireless microphone for speeches, toasts, etc. during your event and our engineer will make all arrangements for you. We can also take care of many other additional audio/video and staging needs you might have for your event at a reduced cost since we will already be on site for your event. We can provide wireless lapel microphones for speeches, video screens and projectors, spotlights, large indoor or outdoor staging systems, and additional sound and lighting capabilities for any size venue.
• Each musician uses in-ear monitors allowing absolute control of the volume in the room. Also, a professional engineer is provided for each performance to unobtrusively monitor sound quality via a wireless laptop computer to ensure that the sound and lighting are perfect!
• We provide a "real" horn section using custom music charts on stage, not an add-on group of musicians intended to make the band look larger rather than sound larger.
• Attention to detail is one of the reasons that we're recognized as St. Louis' wedding specialists for live music. We personally coordinate all of the details with you before the event and we also use this information to implement your wishes during the event. Because of our years of experience you will not only enjoy a great band, but also a virtual on-site event coordinator working to keep your evening on schedule and stress free. We also take care of all the emcee duties for you during the evening (if needed) so that you can relax and enjoy the event. You can feel confident that you’ll be in good hands from the very beginning of our relationship all the way up until the last song of the night!
• We were recently in the studio and have a brand new demo CD that was just released! You can read about the songs on the CD and listen to the tracks by clicking here.
• A very detailed and professional stage appearance that is second to none in St. Louis is specifically designed to enhance an elegant atmosphere.
• The schedule on this web site reflects our highly successful past and also lists our future availability for your event. Our reputation of being one of the most requested bands in the bi-state area for wedding receptions is very apparent by reviewing this schedule.
• Nine-piece instrumentation with female and male vocalists possessing advanced music theory degrees provides exceptional diversity and value.
• Wide variety of music is performed to satisfy all audiences. Your choice of music on an iPod or CDs (yours or ours) can be played during band breaks to keep the party lively.
• Elegant duos or trios including piano and stand-up bass or piano and saxophone are available for cocktails and/or dinner service.
• Spectrum always maintains a significant liability insurance policy for your protection. Always ask to make sure your band is capable of protecting you and your guests from the unexpected.
• We're already familiar with the logistics and acoustics of almost every facility in St. Louis so it's likely that your location is someplace where we've already performed. We've performed at events as small as 50 guests and as large as 5,000 while opening for ZZ Top during an IBM corporate event at the Scottrade Center so we know how to make your event a tremendous success!

Here’s a look at what your guests could see at your event!

We recently purchased a brand new PA system that provides CD quality sound for our guests and we also purchased a brand new LED lighting system so that you and your guests will have an evening that's just as visually dazzling as it is musically dazzling. Don’t let the stage size in the pictures above mislead you since this was a huge stage provided for our New Year’s Eve performance at Chateau on the Lake. We use a sophisticated in-ear monitoring system that eliminates the need for lots of stage monitors (speakers for musicians) scattered about on the stage. We can set the band up in a very small space relative to other bands our size.

Spectrum can arrange to have other local artists perform with the band at your event. These artists can be included as an addition to the band's performance. Let Tim know if you would like this feature and he'll make arrangements for you. Click here for more information.

Mike Bearman (Spectrum's friend) put together a CD that originally was going to be just for his Mother, who is going through some health problems. "Songs For Sally" is not available for purchase but you can get a copy with a contribution (minimum $10) to the Siteman Cancer Center. Also featured on the CD are Spectrum's Tim Callihan - drums, Mary Ann Schulte - piano, Jay Hungerford - bass and special guest Tommy Wilson - drums.
