NEO Orchestra

Based in Chicago IL
Since being voted #1 female-led band in Chicago two years in a row, NEO has added two strong male vocalists, and the band's repertoire and reputation has expanded immensely. The trio of tight vocalists allows the band to cover a wide variety of music– with male or female lead vocals, and two part back up harmonies. With the ability to expand into an 8 piece band with a horn section, we're one of the most popular and sought after bands performing regularly at street festivals, professional sports games, private parties, special events, corporate functions and weddings. Maryann and the Professors deliver the best songs from some of the most popular artists from the 60's to the present day. Our extensive repertoire of songs provides the perfect mix of entertainment, elegance and fun.

NEO's playful onstage presence infuses the audience with energy and excitement that keeps you on your feet all night long! The diverse mix of songs entertains and satisfies any music lover!
