 ​
Welcome CJ!
CJ - Originator of the Rock N' Soul All Star Revue
 
CJ is a Singer, Guitarist and Entertainer! 
CJ came to Lucky Entertainment via one of our awesome performers, Jake Pearson. 
CJ's lifetime love of music and performing became a reality for him when he attended an open Mic Night hosted by Jake.
CJ began his music career after a personal tragedy in his life which kept him from really living.
He decided at the age of 50 to pick up a guitar, then began playing and singing some of his favorite tunes.
The Elbo Room in Lincoln Park was the favorite spot for CJ to play, and after some time, he began hosting an Open Mic Night.
Cj began a show entitled " ROCK N' SOUL ALL-STAR REVUE", to encourage young people to perform and to help the club!
 
CJ loves hits from the 60's / 70's / 80's mostly. His favorite genres are Soft Rock, Folk and Country and even plays some originals. His newest development is working on a full Beatles show including the history of the Beatles!
Some of CJ's favorite artists are : Pure Prairie League, Elton John, The Eagles, Joni Mitchell, Peter, Paul and Mary, The Beatles, Mary Hopkins and much more......
CJ has my heart because of the joy he is bringing to all of the places he is performing for. The latest testimonial about CJ stated: "Thank you so much for CJ.....our members loved him and it brought the house down!! He was so patient and understanding with all the changes...." E. from Downers Grove - Thank you for coming to LE!!!

Michael Duke
June 2019
 ​
Welcome MICHAEL!
Michael Duke - Local Crooner Legend
 
Michael is a Singer, Entertainer and Performer! 
Michael's strong vocal talent began in the early 60's when he sang vocal background for other recording artists.
His studio work led him to the position of lead vocalist for a group called the Chicago Avenue Boys Choir.
Beyond that, he toured nationwide and formed his own group called "The Mod Squad". Michael then became lead singer for a group called "Lettuce Pray".  (This group performed predominantly a "Blood Sweat and Tears" style genre.)

Michael left the touring music scene to work with family, then regular jobs. After retiring from his day to day work, he approached Lucky Entertainment to see about rekindling his first love... MUSIC!

 

We were grateful to help him get back into performing again! His heart, determination and buttery voice has caused him to get asked for time and again from all the places he has performed since he came on board in June 2019.

 

Michael's main repertoire includes Rock, R&B and Pop. Some of his favorite artists are Pentatonix, Elvis, Tony Bennett, Dean Martin, Frank Sinatra and Bobby Darin. We LOVE having him with LE. The staff, residents, administration of the facilities, and club he has played for can't wait to see him again and again!
