The Standards are five brothers from Nashville, all eagle scouts, ranging in age from 23 to 33, with an impressive five octave vocal range. They have been performing for ten years, discovering all the tricks of the trade. They provide their audience with a performance and sound that they will never forget. They feature energetic choreography, comedy, audience interaction and the sounds of yesterday and today. You will hear My Girl, Just My Imagination, Lean on Me, Brown Eyed Girl, California Dreamin', and Lion Sleeps Tonight just to name a few. The highlight of the show is their finale which is an original called Dance of the Mamba. It's a black light number that involves simulated fire, fluorescent costumes, and some amazing choreography. It will blow your audience away.
