About Jim & Val…
Jim Rice and Valerie Roy … they are SUPER close friends. They have been working together for decades which means they often finish each other’s sentences. “The Jim and Val Show” has an entertaining, infectious and special connection that can only happen with OVER 30 years of working together on stage. It’s that cosmic, osmosis, special thing. They both care deeply for their audience. Jim & Val know it is not about themselves as performers but rather the audience and most important, to take their minds off their everyday struggles or worries. They are versatile and can sing any style of music. They can work as a duo with solo piano or with a three- to-four-piece combo … ALL the way up to a 8-piece Las Vegas swing band.
Shows performed include the following:
“Celebrate: “The Music of Steve Lawrence & Eydie Gorme”: Legendary husband and wife team
“I’m A Baby Boomer’s Baby”: Generation Baby Boomer Meet Generation X
“What The World Needs Now”: Just what the title states, we sure need something
“Naughty AND Nice”: A Holiday/Wintery themed celebratory concert
“A Salute To Broadway & The Silver Screen”: Broadway, Movies, NYC and The Great White Way
And so much more … We can tailor make a show specifically for your performing arts series
Get ready!
The Jim & Val Show work lots of private musical concerts however they are ALSO working on getting a live show booked on a stage near you.
For those in Massachusetts, be sure to catch them at The Napoleon Room at Club Cafe. It is a really cool and fun piano/open mic with great eats and spirits. They headline and co-host in downtown Boston once (and often more) every month at this club.
