Mimi Valentine and the Gentlemen’s Club
is a Jazz-age cover band that puts a Speakeasy-spin on modern dance hits, playing popular radio songs with their own signature vintage sound. These Post-Modern Jukebox-style musicians cover all the bases, boasting a repertoire of Pop, Rock, Motown, and Soul favorites—all with a timeless, throwback feel. Talk about a throwback, Mimi Valentine and the Gentlemen’s Club throws it way back—to the 20’s, 30’s, and 40’s era, hearkening back to a time when there was never a shortage of spirits and salacious jazz. You’ll hear Britney Spears done in a Cab Calloway style, T-Swift to the tune of vintage cabaret, along with Radiohead, Soundgarden, Gorillaz, White Stripes, Guns N’ Roses, Madonna, and more—all performed aces high, with an upright bass, brushes back on the drum kit, a melodic piano man, and a duo of dames behind vintage mics.

To really make a grand entrance-style impression, bring our vintage tap and feather fan dancers to the stage or a full vaudevillian cast of characters. As Great Gatsby said, “I like large parties.

WELCOME TO THE CLUB
In the Gentlemen’s Club they know the band falls flat without a canary behind the microphone, so they found two of the finest songbirds around: Miss Mimi Valentine and Miss Bearcat Mazuma. This duo of harmonic vocalists embodies the vintage style and sound of the jazz era, oozing poise and stage presence, plus just the proper amount of persuasion to get the crowd on the dance floor every single time. Nothing minus a knockout rhythm section, the gentlemen of the Gentlemen’s Club truly are the bee’s knees. World-class musicians, one and all, these cats can really play—and play to the crowd is what they do best. Never a dull moment on stage, the entire lineup brings infectious energy and timeless talent to each event. Don’t forget to say hello after the show—Mimi and the band thinks meeting new friends is the absolute cats’ pajamas.

“ENERGY! This is the best word to describe when Mimi Valentine and The Gentlemen’s Club Band takes the stage. The room becomes alive and instantly connects everyone within hearing distance. Amazing and professional!”
C. Chuon
“Mimi Valentine and The Gentlemen’s Club always add layers of approachable sophistication and uncommon, gorgeous wonder to events. Five years ago, I didn’t imagine a world with music and events like they provide, and five years from now, I wouldn’t want to imagine a world without. Definitely recommend!”
