Jeff Bowen - Arranger

Originally from near Lafayette, Indiana, Jeff Bowen attended McCutcheon High School, where he wrote songs and played piano in a small band in Lafayette and surrounding towns and also performed in several plays. While studying Music Merchandising at Indiana State University, Jeff had the honor to be a founder of an ambassador singing group, "Reaching Out" which performed at the RCA Dome (then Hoosier Dome), and at the Botanic Gardens in Washington, DC.

During the summers, Jeff was a member of the Decatur Park Singers in Decatur, Illinois. This is where Jeff really began honing his craft of arranging music. After graduation, he and comedian Craig Tornquist performed the opening act for Jay Leno at Purdue's Elliott Hall Of Music. Since then, Jeff has traveled and performed around the country, including Chicago and New York City.

After moving to Nashville in 1987, he has had many opportunities to perform in clubs, at conventions, and even on the stage of the Ryman Auditorium (with actresses Connie Freeman and Jamie Oakman as "The Pointless Sisters").

In 1991, Jeff scored an Easter Cantata "The Story Of The Cross" which has been staged by several church groups in Nashville over the years.

In 1993, he began working with Nashville actress Connie Freeman. After being Connie Freeman's musical confidante for the past eight years, it is only fitting that he portray Mort Lindsey (Judy Garland's true life musical conductor and arranger) in her one-woman show, "Remembering...An Evening With Judy Garland". In the performance, Jeff also 'pinch-hits' for Judy's musical pal, Mickey Rooney.

In 2003, Jeff portrayed "Paul ShakeHer" in the murder mystery "A Night With The Stars" at Gaylord Opryland Resort & Convention Center in Nashville. After a three month run, he then played "HatTrick" in Kelly Woodruff's murder mystery "Auntie Blame", which ran for two months. He and Kelly Woodruff also co-wrote and performed "The Estate Of The Family Address" where Jeff played "Paper Boy" / "Inspector Cluedumbo".

Jeff loves to travel, especially to judge show choir competitions around the country.

Kelly Woodruff - Owner

Since his early twenties, Kelly Woodruff has owned, marketed and managed several businesses. His management credits extend from the hotel industry (including Opryland Hotel in Nashville) to property management. Since 1997, Kelly has taken Music Arrangement Services and made it one of the top providers of custom arrangements for competition show choirs.

Kelly also has a tremendous love for the theater and has recently been a Road Manager for "Remembering...An Evening With Judy Garland" written by and starring Nashville actress Connie Freeman. Kelly worked co-producing the show in Nashville, Columbus and Northwest Arkansas from 2001 to 2002.

Kelly's theater love continued with his character of "Max VonPeavy" in the murder mystery "A Night With The Stars". In the spring of 2003, he wrote his own murder mystery "Auntie Blame", which ran for two months at the Gaylord Opryland Resort & Convention Center.

His love for property management has taken him to Owensboro, Kentucky. While there, he co-wrote "The Estate Of The Family Address" and portrayed "Max The Butler".
