By Jeff Russo, Entrepreneur & ETA Dad
As a former musician, entrepreneur, and huge fan of early years rock and roll, I have had the privilege of knowing Marco and his band, The Casino Brothers, for many years. Our family has been closely associated with the Collingwood Elvis Festival since my son Connor started competing at the age of 5 in 2009. Since then, Connor has had the opportunity to work with The Casino Brothers Band at multiple shows and venues throughout the country.
I want to start by saying that Marco is an extremely diligent and detail-oriented person. He has exceptional organizational skills, which enable him to successfully manage talent, schedules, and musical repertoires, as well as management expectations. I have personally witnessed him coordinate the entire performance requirements for the world's largest Tribute Festival in Collingwood, Ontario, year after year, and deliver with incredible professionalism and excellence.
As a performer and band leader, Marco is a notch above all other tribute bands in the Elvis festival world. In terms of timing, precision, and the ability to observe an artist and pay attention to all the little nuances and cues that are essential to an authentic and exceptional performance, there is no one better in the business. It was this ability that Elvis Presley demanded from his band and relied on to deliver his epic concerts.
In addition to his exceptional skills as a performer, Marco is also incredibly fit and has a consistent energy throughout an entire performance, reminiscent of Ronnie Tutt's legendary performances with Elvis. We've had many discussions about his fitness and nutritional regimen, and I've seen him put it into action and stay disciplined no matter the venue or situation.
What's more, Marco is a pleasure to hang out with and work with. He is an extremely positive person with great emotional intelligence and will always represent himself and his band with dignity and honor.
If you are in need of musical direction, management, and leadership or an outstanding performer who will make any artist look and sound great, I can personally guarantee that Marco will deliver above and beyond your expectations.
