RIGBY OFFERS TWO DISTINCTLY DIFFERENT SHOWS TO GIVE YOUR CLIENTS A CHOICE

Whatever your needs; be it a corporate convention, resort hotel and casino or that perfect touch to the perfect wedding, Rigby can deliver both a Top 40 dance show and a specialized Beatles act ... or both!

BEATLES REVIVAL SHOW:
Rigby is Canada’s premier tribute to the songs of the Beatles. The band has complemented the legendary Beatles’ sound with a touch of Celtic, Motown and Classic Rock flavor. The addition of a violinist, coupled with the soulful lead vocals of Jill Schettler and the Led Zeppelin fervor of drummer Sean Mitchell, asserts Rigby’s presentation of the mop-top’s catalogue is like no other.
As an added feature, the show also includes an “unplugged” set, in which audience members are encouraged to sing along with the band. Rigby is an act that is well-suited for all ages and prides itself on creating an authentically entertaining experience for those who love The Beatles.

TOP 40 DANCE BAND: Rigby is a new breed of cover band that is well suited to any corporate function, as they also offer a more traditional Top 40 show aside from or in addition to the Beatles revival show, to give your clientele far more options than the average cover act. The band can perform a full compliment of classic rock, disco, dance, pop, and country. From top pop and country stars like Gwen Stefani, Christina Aguilera, and the Dixie Chicks to classic rock legends AC/DC and Guns & Roses. And lets not forget the divas of days gone by like Gloria Gaynor and Aretha Franklin. Rigby is a band that truly delivers a one stop shop for live entertainment.

Rigby personnel are subject to change at the discretion of the musical director. However, all players associated with Rigby are highly skilled professional players who strive for nothing less than perfection during every performance.

Rigby is the brainchild of drummer Sean Mitchell and singer Jill Schettler. Both are Canadian born musicians who have been working in the industry for well over 12 years.
    Sean has fifteen years professional experience behind the kit. He has studied under such industry greats as Zoro (Lenny Kravitz), Mitch Dorge (Crash Test Dummies), Chris Sutherland (Kim Mitchell), Dom Famularo (Clinician), and Ontario’s African drum master Sean Jessau.
    
Sean has shared the stage with the likes of Shania Twain, Wynonna Judd, Jerry Lee Lewis, The New Guess Who, Blue Rodeo and Marty Stuart, to name a few. He has logged countless studio and stage hours playing all over North America. Add to his expertise behind the kit, Sean is the creator and publisher of The Black Page magazine, a one-of-a-kind online drum magazine read by over 12,000 drummers in 25 countries.
    Jill is an incredibly talented songstress who went on to graduate from Brandon University’s School of Music, majoring in both music and creative writing. Jill has also studied under the guidance of vocal coach Owen “Fiidla” Brown who's former pupils include Mary J. Blige and Celine Dion.
    Jill has performed professionally across Canada for over 8 years. She sites having opened for Nazareth, Streetheart and Rik Emmett at Minnedosa’s Classic Rock Weekend and opening for Trooper in Canada’s great white north as two of her career highlights. Jill was also among the many hopefuls that tried out for the popular Canadian reality show Canadian Idol.
    While Jill realized that perhaps the show was not the direction she wanted to pursue, Sass Jordan paid her the ultimate compliment by giving Jill a standing ovation and saying that Miss Schettler had a voice, “as good as Christina Aguilera.”
