We stage some of the finest artists in the world, from cover bands to Tribute bands, notably our Tribute to Abba, to such named artists as Smash Mouth, Michael Franti, Frankie Valli and the Four Seasons, The Wailers, and many others.

As we approach the end of the year, Kim and I paused just long enough to reflect on our last twenty years with The Xceptional Music Company. We knew it had been a lot, but we really had no idea it summed to what you see here.

And this is a partial list that does not include our corporate events for such clients as Bank of America and Goldman Sachs, our cover bands in public venues, easily in the 100’s, some very dear weddings, and dozens upon dozens of charity events for which we helped raise tens of millions of dollars.

But it does reflect some moments on stage whose degree of difficulty and deep satisfaction still resonate. When the audience is happy, the client is happy, the artists are happy, and the crews are happy, nothing quite compares.

We are truly grateful to all those with whom we created and shared the music.

I have had the privilege of staging Herman's Hermits starring Peter Noone five times, and he is fantastic. The same energy, perfect pitch, and mesmerizing smile every time. He and his amazing band will be at the Belly Up on April 7th for a seated show. I will be there. You would LOVE it, too!

We are honored to present "Climbing My Everest," an award-winning short documentary about Kim McKewon's journey with mental illness.

While a full-length feature movie is in the works, we hope this short film will bring awareness to mental health and demonstrate that there is light.

Kim and I hope to speak to organizations, large and small, following a viewing of what you see here - answering questions and sharing a story that may help the 1 in 5 of us who struggle... and the 4 in 5 of us who live with, work with, or care about the one who does.

This is for all of us... and all of you.

It’s World Mental Health Day, and we are excited to announce that we will be sharing our short documentary, “Climbing My Everest” this Friday.

Here is the trailer for the film.

We invite you to watch the documentary and share it with others.
Our hope is that it will be used to help those struggling with a mental health condition and the many others who support them.

Thank you for all the love and support you have shown us over the years. 🫶
