Creating Musical Memories

Jan’s Musical and Entertainment Journey

It all began in the early days when I went to try out for a pro band (Lead Singer). I sat in the Living room listening to them play a song that I knew and could sing too! As I started to sing, I saw the bass player look at the guitar player as they both smiled at each other... I knew I was in! So begins the journey!

Then a job from the Post Office came up, and I took it. But two years later, here comes Jim and Kevin (first band bass and guitar players), who said they needed a new singer, so Goodbye Post Office...Hello Musical Journey!! After that, for the next few years, I was in a few groups and traveled all over Washington, Oregon, Idaho and Alaska. Then my next adventure | started my Single Act. After a year or so of performing in small venues (Bars, Elks, Eagles, Military),

I decided to create the biggest single act from Seattle to Portland. I slowly bought one great piece of gear at a time! 9 Months later I had it all together! One great big quality sound system and with the help of a friend, we made my own background tapes: Rock, Pop, Country and Funk...New and Old. I then started to find my way into the 4- and 5-Piece Band Rooms (150 to 300 Size). It took a lot of "NOs" from owners who said it couldn't work, until they saw it, tried it, and said: "Oh My, it DOES Work!" I took my single act to Alaska for about a year and had a lot of fun!

When I came home saw a lot of my accounts had gone to DJ/ karaoke. I decided it was time to change, and that is when the "Fun Factory" came about! The DJing is great! Ever since the early days I was a people pleaser! It's always been about creating FUN for everyone! In the bands, we had 60 songs. As a single act, I had 200 songs. As a DJ, I have ten million songs! That means I can reach everybody with my love of music!

My experience along the way makes up the "package" of what I am today. Music is like food... we all have different flavors. I can serve up all kinds of "menus"!

Today is a new beginning. Each event is done like it may be my last... to the best of my ability!
