GLEEFUL EXPRESSIONS: Delightful and Unique Musical Options


(Chula Vista Vocal Synergy Choir)

Music is the universal language. It crosses international boarders and brings people together in a way that no other medium can. It also can inspire, console, even uplift us. And what’s more… it’s contagious…. And in such, goes a long way in setting the tone of an event, as well as making it memorable.

At Bollotta Entertainment, music is our specialty. We offer all formats, from dance bands to soloists, and all styles, from Middle Eastern to Surf Rock. But in the spotlight this quarter are three performance entities that take music to an even higher level.

Given the popularity of the television series, Glee, Bollotta Entertainment proudly presents both Vocal Synergy, a San Diego homegrown, Grammy Award-winning high school group that offers Glee-like performances with up to 30-performers, and S I N G, a college-based group that travels nationally and performs a variety of popular music from The Beatles to Black Eyed Peas. Both groups feature slick, uniform choreography that underscores their incredible voices, as well as diversity within their performance ranks.

The perfect selection for entertainment during dinner or throughout a recognition event, or even before a general session, both Vocal Synergy and S I N G are upbeat, engaging and offer a lot of bang for the buck!

And then there’s Kim Olson, a longtime Disney performer, who brings his clever brand of music performance to events nationwide. Uber-talented, Kim begins a performance by meandering through the reception with guitar in hand. He stops to chat with a group of event goers, asking them questions and engaging them in conversation.

Then, before moving on, he offers the group a song based on their answers to his questions and the conversation in general. Before the evening is over, Kim steps to the stage, where he offers the entire group a custom song, composed exclusively for them. Clever, witty, and extremely engaging, Kim never ceases to amaze an audience with his deft songwriting and performance skills.

HE DID IT HIS WAY Bollotta Produces Midway American Patriot Award Ceremonies Honoring Lee Iacocca


Lee Iacocca is arguably the world’s most well known CEO. As the president of Ford and then Chrysler, he forever changed America’s automobile industry. As a staunch patriot, he works tirelessly to ensure America’s history and values remain respected and revered for generations to come.

Bollotta Entertainment recently had the good fortune to help develop an evening honoring Iacocca on board the USS Midway, which named him its 2010 Midway American Patriot at its annual Gala this past September.

Attended by some 700 Midway supporters and Iacocca admirers, the evening had all the appropriate trimmings, a ride down the flight deck by Iacocca in a vintage Mustang convertible, an original tribute song provided by the Banger’s All American Rock-n-Roll Band from Princeton, an inspiring rendition of the National Anthem by Miss America 2010, Caressa Cameron and the Navy Band Southwest, a delectable dinner, a ceremonial video and presentation, the San Diego Symphony featuring Frank Sinatra, Jr., with whose father, Lee Iacocca was good friends, fireworks, and Jack, from the Jack In The Box Foundation, which co-presented the evening.

Orchestrated by Bollotta Entertainment, who also scripted the video and on-stage presentation, the evening celebrated Lee Iacocca’s accomplishments through an expert blend of elements that lent the evening reverence and whimsy.
