Vicky
Richmond
26 years in the entertainment profession
Vicky is a seasoned professional, and is at the top of her game. She is precise and nothing but professional. Along with that comes an experienced DJ, that knows what it takes to make your night one that you will NEVER forget.
Vicky offers over twenty-six years of entertaining experience as a Deejay as well as entertaining as a vocalist/percussionist for "Topaz" (their corporate band), and "The Jes Richmond Band" where they perform originals as well as cover tunes. Vicky has performed at private events for the likes of George Clooney, Tom Hanks, George Segal, and Candice Bergen. She has Emceed and Deejayed thousands of events knowing that each one client has different needs and expectations. It is always Vicky’s goals to exceed those expectations! Vicky hails from the St. Louis area. She graduated with her B. F. A. degree in Musical Comedy and Drama from Illinois Wesleyan University. She opened a Dinner Theater upon graduating, saved her money, bought her first new car, and headed for Los Angeles.
After spending 24 years in Los Angeles trying to make a go of her music, Vicky Richmond returned to Shelbyville, Indiana, (her husband's birth place). As it did with all of us, September 11th hit her hard and she (and Jes) came home to be with their families.
Here are some testimonials in Vicky's behalf......
"If all my employees were as detailed-oriented and professional as Vicky, our company would be unsurpassed in entertaining service and quality!
- Kathleen Sacchi, The Fine Art Of Catering
"Vicky has headed up our events as Entertainment Coordinator for 15 years now. Managing without her here in Los Angeles will be quite a feat! With her eye for detail and personality plus, these are big shoes to fill!"
- Ann Tardino, Autunno Catering and Special Events
"We can't tell you how much we enjoyed the music for our Christmas bash this past year! Jes and Vicky's band "Topaz" performed with such exuberance and then to top it off with Vicky deejaying in between the band's breaks, giving all our guests a chance to come make their own selections from Vicky's printed Deejay book was the icing on the cake! Talk about having the best of both worlds! Can't wait to have them back next year.”
-Linda Burrows, Producer of "Cheers, Taxi"...
