Birthday Party (Adult)•Reviewed on December 27, 2025•From Arlington Heights, IL

Great carolers! I was looking for the first time to hire to surprise my husband for a birthday/holiday party. They coordinated with me in advance and were very responsive. Great performance, would recommend!

Club Event•Reviewed on June 19, 2025•From Joliet, IL

Chicago Retro was absolutely phenomenal! Our women's charity organization, with ages from 93 to 35 LOVED them! They roamed and sang table to table and then closed out their performance with a total room sing-along! I am still getting texts and phone calls about how wonderful and fun they are. Thank you Gentlemen!!

Easter Celebration•Reviewed on April 21, 2025•From Chicago, IL

John Q was amazing as our Easter Bunny! My nephews absolutely loved interacting with him and he was so great with them. He brought eggs filled with surprises and all of us were thrilled with how sweet and fun he was with the kids. He was communicative, punctual, and genuine. Thank you so much, John!

Birthday Party (Adult)•Reviewed on July 13, 2018•From Valparaiso, IN

What a pleasure to have them as part of our family get together. Everyone complimented me about the singers performance and what a great group of guys! Thanks to all and thanks to John Q for all you did. Dave

Dave, What a wonderful family and fun event. I really liked to look on you Mom's face when the four guys she thought were waiters started to sing. Thank you for choosing Chicago Retro and the nice complements.

Review by Joe S.

Birthday Party (Adult)•Reviewed on June 18, 2018•From Dyer, IN

John Q and his troupe were just great. Very professional and very fun. Prompt and right on time. They are of a similar era and age group for the person they were hired to perform for. A lot in common with my Uncle and had an appropriate repertoire of songs from his youth (50's & 60's). Their costumes were great in the traditional style of an old-fashioned barber shop quartet. Most importantly, they truly seemed to enjoy what they were doing and making sure the recipient felt comfortable. Made it personal. I would recommend them to anyone. Good value as well.

:

Joe, It was a joy to perform for Uncle Joe and family. Thank for the wonderful comments and choosing entertainers from Chicago Retro. John Q

Community Event•Reviewed on December 5, 2017•From Oak Lawn, IL

Fermata D'Aria was a wonderful addition to our community event! All four gentlemen were extremely kind and professional. Interaction with the crowd was wonderful. We received great feedback from the attendees of the event. Fermata D'Aria's performance of Christmas tunes had both children and adults smiling in delight.

Anniversary Party•Reviewed on June 19, 2017•From Chicago, IL

I had such a pleasant experience with these gentlemen. They were the hit of the party! Not only are they all emensley talented but they're very nice guys and know how to work a room. My husband and I will not hestitate in booking them for another event. We couldn't have been happier! Last minute the WGN morning show confirmed that they would be filming live at our event. In a rush I asked if they could accommodate WGN and film one early morning segment, before they were scheduled to appear at the event which was hours later. Fermata D'Aria not only nailed their live performance, but we're kind enough to donate all their tips from that day to our charity! Great guys!

:

Alena and Lawrence, Thank you for your kind words and we had a wonderful time at your event. The Chicago Public Schools is a great cause and we look forward to working with you in the future. John Q

Great group - great guys - great fun. They were very cooperative and a joy to work with. Thank you!

Review by Sandra R.

Christmas Party•Reviewed on December 5, 2016•From Willowbrook, IL

We had a wonderful experience with this group. They were able to "read" the party very well and performed accordingly. They knew when to be funny and when to be more serious and the people attending our party enjoyed them very much! The audience participation with "The Twelve Days of Christmas" will most certainly be one of the talked about events in years to come. Thank you John and Fermata D'Aria.

:

Sandra Thank you for the kind words. We truly felt like guests in your home rather than performers. Have a joyous Holiday season. Sincerely, John Q

Fermata D'Aria was the perfect group for our Christmas program. The best recommendation was the positive response from those in attendance. I would highly recommend!
