"I would like to thank you for supporting the 2009 Australian Day Ball at the Trump International Hotel & Tower Chicago. The event guests were impressed by your group's versatility and genuine talent. The live performance of "Advance Australia Fair" was particularly well-received and we sincerely thank you for presenting our anthem so professionally. If a crowded dance floor is indicative of a successful evening, then I heartily congratulate you all on a job well done. We look forward to further opportunities to hear Who Knew perform and wish you the best with your future endeavors."

“I wanted to thank Who Knew for our company event. You took the wrath that Mother Nature gave us in stride and your professional willingness to adapt to the ‘plan B’ was excellent. The music was outstanding and we look forward to having Who Knew back for future events. Thank you again !”

Bio
We have worked hard to ensure that Who Knew isn’t considered just another cover band. Kelli Ann has performed at Carnegie Hall as a teenager, Michael Young has played with John Mellencamp, Katie Leigh has numerous awards in her gospel career, Tony Domino has been in thirty movies including the Dark Night, Matt is credited on numerous CDs, and Jackie has a Master’s in Musicology from Tufts.
In our first two years, Who Knew performed for over 100 shows, including playing for the Australian Consulate at the Trump Towers Chicago. Soon after that event, we received a letter from Elizabeth Schick, Consul General, which reads:
“……The event guests were impressed by your group's versatility and genuine talent…….If a crowded dance floor is indicative of a successful evening, then I heartily congratulate you all on a job well done. We look forward to further opportunities to hear Who Knew perform and wish you the best with your future endeavors."
With an average age of less than 34, Who Knew has 124 years of combined music experience. We still really love what we do, and look forward to doing what we love for years to come.
