WHO IS JACKPOT?


CeeCee Sharp (yep, just like the music note, C#) is a seasoned performer and has been in many various bands, ranging from a 12-piece orchestra to 5-piece "cover" bands, to the current two-piece, "Jackpot."  A singer-songwriter, she approaches her music with a passion.  Having learned from the best, (her 3 older sisters sang in church) music has always been a part of her  life.  "I love to entertain and feel 'one' with the crowd.  I feed off them, and vice-versa.  I feel blessed to have found my passion."  Cee is not a stranger to the recording studio.  She's recorded jingles for radio airplay & recorded many songs---her own originals, as well as other fellow-musician's works.   A true "Gemini," Cee brings her multi-tasking skills to the stage as a percussionist and singer.





Zip Zip Schneider is the "other" half of Jackpot.  He, too, is a seasoned performer, being the "backbone" of the band.  Zip plays keyboard live & does all their music arranging (and music programming) behind the scenes.  Zip applies his wizardry magic to every song, making Jackpot's live performances sound like a much larger band.  "I love for people to feel the beat---and 'that's' what makes people dance.  Even if they just want to sit in their chair and tap their feet, I can get 'em moving!"  Zip's performed in many different venues, also-- from cruises to clubs.  A Scorpio, Zip is also part of the songwriting team of Jackpot.  




Like "Yin and Yang," (of the philosophy Feng Shui) they compliment one another to create beautiful harmony.
