Industrial Artist Management books all kinds of unique acts who can work with you to create performances that match your message or brand image. Comedians Greg Giraldo and Jeff Ross specialize in working customized corporate themes into their acts. The Eturnity Band is led by James Brown’s former drummer Lois Alston, so you know they put on an energetic show. The Luma troupe’s performance art utilizes glow-in-the-dark costumes and props for a spectacular effect (pictured), and Art of War performs an array of martial arts from kung fu to capoeira for some multicultural appeal. Speaking of culture, the Rhythmics can bring some urban culture to your event with their unique blend of hip-hop, beat box, and dance (think Bring in Da Noise! Bring in Da Funk!)—they’ve already done it for Fuji, Pfizer, and AT&T. Or how about Bond? The pop classical quartet’s gimmick is that they’re all supersexy (and scantily clad) lady violinists. You can check them out at www.bondmusic.net, and contact bondproductions@mac.com to book. More resources with a wealth of talent: Spyralhead Lady can provide all kinds of unusual circusstyle acts, and BongarBiz Acts & Artists Network Entertainment can book almost anything under the sun. Plenty of other options are listed in our resource directory.
