BJ had mega-big secular hits in the 60's and 70's such as "Hooked on a Feeling" and "Raindrops Keep Falling on my Head"
before becoming a Christian.
There aren't many areas of popular music B.J. Thomas hasn't impacted. Since the mid-1960's, when he became one of the
most successful artists on the American musical landscape, he has recorded an incredible string of successes in several
genres - 15 Top 40 pop hits, 10 Top 40 Country hits, five Grammys, two Dove awards, two platinum and 11 gold records, and
chart-toppers on the pop, country, gospel and adult contemporary charts. Along the way, his has become one of the most
recognized and respected voices of his generation.
Almost 50 million records after his initial successes, B.J.'s versatility is still as much of his approach as his wonderfully
expressive voice. In fact, B.J. Thomas has always chosen to present positive, uplifting material, no matter what genre he's
been working in.
By '68, he'd had four gold records - "The Eyes Of A New York Woman," "Hooked On A Feeling" and "It's Only Love"
being the other three - and labelmate Dionne Warwick, who'd been working with the Burt Bacharach/Hal David songwriting
team, recommended him for "Raindrops Keep Falling On My Head," which was written for the motion picture Butch Cassidy
& The Sundance Kid. "I was in the right place at the right time," B.J. says, "and probably got their best song ever."
"Raindrops" was Bacharach/David's first million-seller; it won an Academy Award and B.J. sang the song on the 1970
Academy Awards telecast.
B.J. would go on during the early '70's to record hits like "I Just Can't Help Believin'," "No Love At All" and "Rock And
Roll Lullaby," scoring a dozen gold records. Throughout the period, he sold tens of millions of records and appeared
regularly on TV programs like the Ed Sullivan Show and in top nightclubs and concert halls. In 1976, he released the first of
several gospel albums, "Home Where I Belong," which went platinum, making him the biggest contemporary Christian artist
of the period. Over the next several years, he received a couple of Dove awards.
He's had 10 Top 40 hits on the country charts with hits like "What Ever Happened To Old Fashioned Love" and "New
Looks From An Old Lover." His country success led him to become, on his 39th birthday, the 60th member of the Grand Ole
Opry.
To book an artist such as B.J Thomas and or other big name talent for your Corporate Event, Private Party, Fundraiser or
Convention, let one of our Entertainment staff negotiate with managers, agents and artists to achieve the best possible
entertainment experience.

STYX
We're having so much fun playing together," claims Styx guitarist/vocalist Tommy Shaw, "that we're not ready to stop to
record again yet." Since the release of their most recent CMC album, "Brave New World," the current incarnation of Styx
has played over 90 shows to enthusiastic audiences around the U.S. and Japan. Their plan is to play another 100+ shows
across America and Europe throughout the year 2000 before they consider recording a new studio CD. Friends, critics, and
fans who have seen the recent shows have all been struck by the amazingly energetic performances of all the current band
members. Joining Shaw and guitarist/vocalist James "JY" Young are former Styx member Glen Burtnik (who had replaced
Shaw when he left the group in 1983 for a few years) on bass, Lawrence Gowan on keyboards and vocals, and drummer
Todd Sucherman, who has been a member of the band since the untimely death of original drummer John Panozzo a few
years ago. The festival shows are done arena-style with the typical Styx lavish, theatrical productions that have thrilled
audiences through the past 3 decades. Some of the band's recent shows have been "An Evening With…" performances
which are done in a more informal setting with band members chatting with the audience and performing in a style similar to
the VH1 Storytellers format. In either case, the demand for additional appearances has convinced the band to keep touring
without benefit of releasing a new studio album.
Lawrence Gowan comes to Styx via a successful performing and recording career in Canada. Having been classically
trained, Gowan's vocal and playing abilities quickly made him a huge success in Canada with 3 platinum and 4 gold hit
records, numerous Juno Award nominations, and eventually the Prestigious Achievement Award from the Canadian Society
of Composers, Authors, and Publishers. Styx became aware of him in 1997 when he opened a few Canadian dates for them
and remarkably received two encores from a crowd filled with longtime Styx fans. His success in front of their audience and
his incredible stage energy and vocal ability made him the obvious choice to replace original member Dennis DeYoung in
1999. "Gowan's a real asset to Styx," explains JY. "He's brought new energy and excitement to the stage and I don't think
I've had this much fun playing live in many years."
Burtnik, this time replacing original bassist Chuck Panozzo who has chosen to concentrate on other creative projects, is no
stranger to Styx fans, having replaced Tommy back in the 80's when he sang lead on two hit singles off of the band's "Edge
of the Century" album. Hailing from New Jersey, Burtnik was a popular opening act for the area's biggest artists like Bruce
Springsteen and Jon Bon Jovi. His first big break came when he was cast as Paul McCartney in the touring company of the
hit Broadway musical "Beatlemania", but Glen has always been a top-rated songwriter and prefers to perform his own songs
or write songs for others. Artists such as Patty Smyth and Randy Travis have had #1 hits with his songs, and Glen himself
has released 4 solo albums of his own work over the past 15 years.
As many fans found out last year, when the planets align, Chuck will fly in to join his bandmates on stage for a song or two. It
is always a great jam and the fans get to see STYX become a six-piece band!
