About Us About Us About Us
Sweet Reminder is the dynamic duo that entertains audiences with the hits of yesterday in their unique playful style! Beautiful vocals and interesting harmonies meet light-hearted fun, as Nancy Baumet and Dia Madden invite you to join in an engaging musical experience.  These former Legacy Girls are no strangers to delighting audiences with their upbeat personalities as well as their great vocals.  They offer several different show options, and each one is a hoot so you can't go wrong!  Their current show options include:  The Andrews Sisters Musical Revue (Yes, after 12 years since the Andrews Sisters act took off, this is still very popular-  especially for veterans groups!); The Nifty 50's & 60's (think poodle skirts and saddle shoes); Timeless Tunes (think classic tunes from crooners such as Patti Page, Frank Sinatra, Peggy Lee and Doris Day); Sweet Reminders of Christmas (celebrating the sounds of the season!); as well as Love Notes for celebrating Valentine's Day.  New for 2019 is Pop Go-Go the 60's which is sure to leave you feelin' groovy!  Click on the Tickets/Reservations tab to get a bit more detail about each show.  All of the performances are quite engaging.  Besides the wonderful vocals, they truly entertain!  You'll get interesting song facts, a healthy dose of humor, some quirky props and a bit of audience participation for fun along the way!  Come on out to White Fence Farm in Romeoville or Chandler's in Schaumburg for a fun lunch matinee; or give them a call to come and bring some fun to YOUR event.  They travel to senior centers, retirement communities, churches, libraries, even personal birthday and anniversary parties!

I just wanted to thank you soooooo VERY much for the Fourth of July Program. I had almost EVERY resident tell me how much they LOVED the show that night and they can't wait to see you all again. For starters, I would LOVE to book you on the Fourth of July next year one again. I will also book you for more shows next year as well! However, first and foremost we definitely want you back on the Fourth of July next year again. Same time.... 7:00 PM. Please let me know if you are available! Thanks again!

Thank you so much for your musical presentation "Afternoons at OPPL: Sweet Reminder" at the Orland Park Public Library. The audience thoroughly enjoyed the presentation, as indicated by the positive feedback we have received about the program. Please keep us on your mailing list. The library is always looking for great programs such as this.

Kelly A. Cuci: Orland Park Public Library

Thank you for delighting us with your performance. I did not know anything about America or English language till 1953 and grew up with no electricity or any radio. I came to USA in 1963 and took another few years to assimilate. Did not know these songs. You made the performance so nice that everybody was thrilled. God has blessed you with a talent. Thank you for sharing it with us.
