Bob Stankard-Oldies, Motown, Rock N Roll, Jazz One Man Band from Wenonah, NJ

Bob Stankard is a professional entertainer and accomplished singer based in South Jersey who brings a high energy one man variety show to social clubs, civic organizations, veterans groups, corporate events and private celebrations — delivering the kind of live entertainment that gets people laughing, singing and dancing. With over 220 performances annually Bob has earned a reputation as one of the most versatile and genuinely entertaining performers in the region. His variety show combines outstanding vocal performances, trumpet playing, dancing and spontaneous comedy in a seamless performance that feels less like a concert and more like an evening with a naturally gifted entertainer who genuinely loves what he does. What truly sets Bob apart is his unique interactive performance system. With over 800 of the most popular songs spanning six decades, Bob invites audiences to call out any year from the 1920s through the 1990s and responds with iconic songs from that era perfectly suited to the mood in the room. He takes requests, reads his audience in real time and adjusts on the fly — turning every show into a genuine conversation between performer and crowd. People aren't just watching Bob perform — they're participating, shouting out years, making requests and becoming part of the show itself. This creates an energy and spontaneity that no scripted entertainment can replicate. Bob's musical range spans six decades and virtually every genre — pop standards, rock and roll, Motown, classic rock, disco, R&B, country, adult contemporary, gospel and jazz. Bob is primarily a singer — and truly one of the finest in the Philadelphia area. His vibrant warm voice delivers authentic, dynamic and soaring vocals across every style — from tender romantic ballads to driving rock anthems to soulful R&B — with equal sophistication and genuine feeling. His trumpet playing adds exciting instrumental moments that consistently generate enthusiastic audience response. His G-rated comedy and ad lib humor draw on a vaudeville inspired variety show tradition — spontaneous wit and genuine warmth rather than scripted jokes. Whether you're planning a holiday party, anniversary celebration, summer social, corporate event, fundraiser or regular monthly entertainment for your organization, Bob delivers a professional crowd pleasing performance your attendees will talk about long after the evening ends. His show works equally well for intimate gatherings of thirty and larger events of one hundred or more. Bob arrives early, sets up efficiently and brings the same disciplined professionalism to every engagement regardless of venue size or occasion. Fully self-contained with professional sound equipment and everything needed for a seamless performance — no technical hassles, no large crew, no complications. Bob is obsessively focused on audience satisfaction — every song choice, every comedic moment and every audience interaction is driven by one goal — making sure every person in the room has the time of their life. Just a consummate professional who shows up prepared, delivers an outstanding show and leaves your attendees wanting more. Currently available throughout South Jersey, Philadelphia and the greater Delaware Valley region as well as seasonal engagements in Florida including The Villages.
