Shari Chaskin and her musical partner Jon Day are truly a magical duo. The depth of their musical passion is so very evident in their performances – bringing their audience to tears and to joy. Filled with soulful and classic jazz tone stylings, showtunes, pop and easy listening genres, they are a delight for their audience. Their range is vast and their ability to capture their crowd is truly a gift to those who are blessed share their music with them.
I have been fortunate to know Shari on a personal level for more than 20 years and she has consistently followed her heart to the music that brings meaning to her life and joy to others. She has always been generous with her talent and her musical gifts to the community. She is brave and bold with her voice such that she can fill a room with the intensity and intention only a gifted performer has the capacity for. She will always be my favorite songbird and I am grateful to share her musical journey.

Hi Shari, loved every song last night. When I closed my eyes I saw your energy so bright you were surrounded in yellow glow. Your voice went through my whole body. There is a beautiful shift in you and an even bigger opening of your heart voice. Thank you for sharing your gift 💜

Without a doubt, having Shari sing at your next event, party, or celebration will add an element of distinction! No matter the genre, her powerful voice fills the room with a STAR quality. She has performed several times at evenings I have hosted and her voice always leaves my guests spellbound.

Special Events
Shari Chaskin and her talented musical partner, pianist Jon Day have been a wonderful Calgary Petroleum Club member favourite entertainer for many years. In February of 2021, Shari and Jon performed an intimate “virtual” Valentine’s event for the Club members when in-person events were not permitted. Post- pandemic, Shari has been able to perform at the Clubs Valentine, New Year’s Eve and Seafood Buffet celebrations. Shari is a consummate professional. Shari delivers on every aspect of the event. What truly is the magic, however, is Shari herself. She is compassionate, funny, caring and for her “It’s Personal” – a Club core value. Shari is not only a preferred corporate entertainer; she is now a friend. I would recommend Shari to everyone. It is rare to find such talent; and you will not find a more caring human.

Dear Shari,
I just wanted to send a big thank you for your incredible performance at our James Bond-themed party on November 16th at the BMO. You truly brought the evening to life with your remarkable talent and presence and made the night unforgettable!
Your voice is absolutely captivating, and you really know how to draw people in. It was such a pleasure having you perform the 007 songs, and we couldn't have asked for a better vibe for the event.
Thanks again for making the evening so special. Hope to work with you again soon!

This is truly the most inspiring and incredible rendition of “Mary Did You Know” that I
have ever heard. Your voice is amazing and you bring powerful emotion to the message
of this song. I am still listening to this again this morning! I cannot wait to see you perform again!
I have your songs on my Spotify next to Lady Gaga, Pink and Adele!

Weddings
Shari performed for our wedding at the Fairmont Banff Springs Hotel. It was spectacular. She truly is talented and has a sultry voice and presence. She and pianist Jon Day played over 20 songs and learned most of them specially for our repertoire. Our guests raved about the music for weeks afterwards. It truly did make the day that much more special.

You are the brightest star!!! I love when you bring your fun loving, keeping it real, personality to the show! Lol… The Celtic song hit my soul hard and I still feel the chills it gave me. Also, there’s nothing like you singing songs from Les Miserables! Great night and so many great songs!
