Marquee Five

Marquee Five is a five-member vocal group, which formed together in 2009 in New York, NY. The group consists of: Mick Bleyer (Bass), Vanessa Parvin (Soprano), Adam West Hemming (Tenor and main Musical Director/Arranger), Julie Reyburn (Mezzo) and Sierra Rein (Alto).

Their debut show, "We Can Make It: The Songs of Kander and Ebb" performed at the Metropolitan Room in December of 2009 and won them a 2009 MAC Award for Best Vocal Group. It featured pianist Mark Janas and was Directed by Peter Napolitano. Later in 2010, they opened up the group's second show, "8-Track Throwback," which featured 1960's and 1970's singer-songwriter pieces. Marquee Five was nominated for a second MAC Award that year. In Spring and Summer of 2011, they recorded "8-Track Throwback" as their debut CD.
