 "Kelly Brock is not only a talented performer and vocalist with the band Dr. Strangelove, she miraculously confirmed a band for my event with less than a weeks notice! They were full of talent and Kelly was able to meet my required budget! Kelly truly is a professional, it pays to work with someone who has multiple options"

The YPO Vancouver Committee and I worked closely with Kelly and her team at VanHattan Entertainment on our recent YPO member event. Kelly produced a great multi-artist concert show for our final Gala event along with providing entertainment for the entire weekend. I highly recommend working with Kelly and VanHattan.” -

Executive Chairman Seaspan/CopperLion Capital

Kelly is absolutely wonderful to work with! She is extremely well connected in the entertainment industry, and has always come through with the best recommendations of talent for us to have perform at BC Cancer Foundation events. Any genre of performer or act we are in search of, Kelly has someone she can send us! Her band, Dr. Strangelove, has also been the long time dance band for our Gala's after party. They keep guests dancing into the night. I would highly recommend working with Kelly!

It was such a pleasure working with Vanhattan Entertainment on our 20th anniversary event and so wonderful to have Dr. Strangelove and Diane Lines playing at our party! I have received nothing but positive feedback about the entertainment and you all made the evening truly special for our group. I hope we get to work together again in the future- thank-you so much again!

Kelly and her team at VanHattan Entertainment are fantastic. They have provided numerous entertainment services to YPO BC and Cactus Club events over the years and always put on an excellent show. I would highly recommend working with Kelly.

"It was a pleasure to work with VanHattan Entertainment who lined up  54-40, Amanda Wood & Rosemary Siemens. The entertainment was absolutely perfect, and a pleasure to have as a part of our special weekend. I know that Anthony Von Mandl of Mission Hill Winery was very impressed by VanHattan Entertainment. I fully expect that as they plan future events, these talented musicians will be top of mind. 

 

I look forward to our next opportunity!!"

A few years ago Kelly Brock helped me organize an amazing show for the YPO Canadian Conference when it was held in Vancouver. She brought in multiple entertainers including Dr Strangelove, Neil Osborne (54-40), Darby Mills (Headpins), Bill Henderson (Chilliwack), Craig Northey (ODDS), Al Harlow (Prism) and Lee Aaron. Kelly was great to work with and I highly recommend her!

Kelly from VanHattan is AMAZING, she is a performer herself and is very well networked in the local music scene, and operates her own company, Vanhattan Entertainment Group.  There isn’t anything she can’t do!

The consummate professional, Kelly is a joy to work with. She was very quick to zero in on the vibe I was looking for and she brought a great assortment of excellent talent to me to choose from. Her extensive experience as an entertainer gives her insight that other booking agents just don't have. Kelly rolls with all kinds of special requests and is very upfront about feasibility and viability. I feel like she's got my back in negotiations. If you're looking for a well-connected expert that brings live entertainment knowledge to the table, don't hesitate to call VanHattan Entertainment!
