ROUTE 66 made its spectacular debut in 1994 in The Netherlands under the direction of Leslie Gray and proved to be a success in a wide variety of venues all over Europe, performing to a ’standing room only’ audience in the 9,000 seat AHOY amphitheatre in Rotterdam as well as intimate dinner parties, trade shows and corporate events. In addition, ROUTE 66 appeared on several popular television shows, sang back-up for major Dutch pop artists and was a featured headliner in a well-known theme park located on the German border. Leslie returned to the United States in 1996 and recreated this successful group here in Chicago.

This fabulously entertaining quartet crooned on WTMX as guests of the Eric & Kathy show and on WGN radio as guests of the Dean Richards show; raised the roof of the United Center for Bulls games; had the special honor of singing the National Anthem for the Chicago Bears Game at Soldier Field; appeared on the WGN morning show singing their beautiful a cappella rendition of the “Star-Spangled Banner” in honor of the 4th of July; helped kick off the Solar Car Exhibit at the Museum of Science & Industry and contributed their unique 40’s USO style to many corporate events at the U505 submarine exhibit; created a buzz for tradeshow clients such as the International Housewares show at McCormick Place; entertained at a “Support Our Troops” fundraiser in Bartlett and at the Great Lakes Naval Station in Lake Bluff; represented Kraft, lighting up Daley Plaza with their fantastic harmonies as they helped launch their new product; traveled to Washington DC to help liven up the annual Mass Mutual Convention and to Milwaukee for Northwestern Mutual, and were back in Chicago at Soldier Field for State Farm; and are a favorite at corporate events, private parties, summer festivals and holiday celebrations throughout Chicagoland, from Batavia to Wilmette to Olympia Fields!

ROUTE 66 appeals to audiences of all ages! Their versatility allows them to offer clients a wide range of performance options, from an a cappella repertoire during a cocktail hour to a complete stage show with music, costumes and choreography – making them suitable for any venue, large or small. ROUTE 66 also offers an a cappella repertoire of traditional holiday carols and contemporary holiday classics in November and December especially for the festive season!
