Interactive Music Programs

Bringing the Soundtrack of Their Lives Back to Life

Tailored, interactive musical experiences for Independent Living, Assisted Living, and Memory Care communities across the Midwest.

The Program

More Than Entertainment

With over 40 years of professional performing experience, Dennis brings a level of musicianship, warmth, and stage presence that transforms a typical activity hour into something residents talk about for weeks.

His signature program features a 200-song request book spanning the 1940s through the 1970s. Residents don't just listen — they request songs, reminisce, sing along, and reconnect with the music that shaped their lives.

Each performance is thoughtfully customized to the level of care — adjusting pacing, storytelling, and interaction style to ensure every resident is engaged and included.

Interactive, Not Passive
Residents request songs from a 200+ song book, sing along, and share memories. Every show is a conversation, not a concert.
Customized for Every Setting
Programs are tailored for Independent Living, Assisted Living, and Memory Care — adjusting energy, pacing, and interaction to meet residents where they are.
Consistent & Reliable
Over 40 interactive shows annually across the Midwest. Professional, punctual, and prepared — every time.
40+ Years of Musicianship
Dennis has shared stages with the Eagles, America, and Kenny Loggins. That caliber of talent makes every performance exceptional.
