THE CHESSMEN consist of five vocalists, who play piano, keyboards, harmonica, saxophone, drums, 
        percussion, bass, guitar, dobro, violin, mandolin and banjo.


      The CHESSMEN perform their dance music in a fast paced non-stop style.
        Along with one of the largest repertoires of any performing band today, their skits
        include: Soggy Bottom Boys, YMCA, ZZ Top and Little Red Riding Hood as well
        as "Las Vegas Style" floorshows that have become a popular and distinctive 
         trademark for the band. All shows are complete with spotlight, costumes and 
         the choreography.

        A TRIBUTE TO THE KING This exciting, realistic production is patterned 
        after Elvis Presley's Las Vegas shows. This show features Tommy VanAtta 
        as "The King" dressed in the Las Vegas show costume along with the trademark movements and mannerisms
        that will bring back memories of Elvis. The Chessmen's back-up vocals are performed in the styles of the 
        Jordanaires and the Stamps Quartet and the musical score is truly exciting.

      THE BLUES BROTHERS SHOW
        This energetic performance by The Chessmen pays tribute to the Chicago Blues Brothers. Tommy gets the
         audience involved with his rendition of "Mustang Sally" and "Leave Your Hat On".  Complete with full costumes,
         hot choreography, Motown sounds, and bluesy solos on harmonica and guitar,  this is one show you'll remember.
