Dan Ferris, Vocalist

Dan Ferris performs at top clubs and hotels in Chicago. He is also co-founder of Chicago Jazz Magazine.

"Vocalist Dan Ferris managed to find something new to say in 'Witchcraft,' a song indelibly associated with Frank Sinatra."

—Howard Reich
Chicago Tribune

After hundreds of performances in clubs and restaurants, corporate functions, tradeshows, hotels, private parties and weddings we realize that the music of Frank Sinatra is still in high demand.
That's why we came up with the concept of Martinis & Sinatra. Martinis & Sinatra is not a Sinatra impersonation or "schtick"—it's top musicians performing music of the "Sinatra generation," from c tesomposers like Cole Porter, the Gershwins, Sammy Cahn, Rogers & Hart, Antonio Carlos Jobim and many more.
Martinis & Sinatra provides an upscale and exciting atmosphere for corporate receptions, trade shows, weddings and cocktail and holiday parties. One more thing: Martinis & Sinatra performs music at a reasonable volume, so you and your guests can mingle, dance, network and just plain have fun!

TESTIMONIALS

“Mike, you did it again. What a great sound! You and the group added the perfect atmosphere to the event.”

—Dennis McSwain

“The Dan Ferris performance was the first show at the Morton Arboretum that broke the 1,000 attendee mark for our concert series. I don't think we would have kept the program going had we not had such a success to conclude the year. Dan worked our open lawn as if it were an intimate club of 100. The music appealed to an audience that ranged from twenty-somethings to eighty-year-olds. The show eventually ended due to darkness, but the crowd wanted more. Had we had stage lighting at the time, I think we would have run through his entire repertoire.”

“We would like to express our experiences regarding the quality of Dan Ferris’ performance and entertainment style. We have seen Dan perform many times at both Pete Miller’s locations (Wheeling and Evanston) and have enjoyed the Martinis and Sinatra format immensely. We have also seen Dan perform at smaller venues and large private parties. Dan is very adaptable and all of these outings were excellent. At Pete Millers we were able to muster a group of 6-10 friends every week for Dan’s show. It turned into a nice regular night out for our group. We also planned our company Christmas party with Dan's Martinis & Sinatra. It was a very nice way to celebrate the holidays.”
