Michael Masci

Michael Masci began performing in the entertainment industry as a teenager, playing piano in the Masci Family band. The family moved to south Florida in 1985 and took it by storm, playing at the prestigious Palm Aire Resort for the likes of Mary Tyler Moore, Muhammad Ali and Frank Sinatra, who always personally requested Michael Masci to perform for him. Michael was 29 years old and enjoyed having the great Frank Sinatra give him standing ovations and personally telling him, "Keep this music alive, Michael."

In 1995, Michael and his parents' band "The Masci Family" decided to perform in Branson, Missouri at their own venue, The Jubilee Theater. There, in the family friendly atmosphere chocked full of talent, Michael enjoyed putting together shows with Jay Schneider (former music director for John Davidson) and performing two shows each day for a year. Michael was able to befriend and learn from many of the biggest entertainers in the industry, like Dolly Parton, Wayne Newton, Tony Orlando, Mickey Gilley, Andy Williams and the Osmond Family and many more.

In the late 1990s, Michael began performing with his 18-piece big band for Disney's Yacht Club, other notable venues and private shows. In 2007, Michael Masci began his international debut, traveling in Europe, South America and bringing his unique sound abroad.
