Mark & Gretch

Mark and Gretch Hladish have written, recorded and performed music together since they met in 2004. From the beginning they branded their unique performances producing masterfully crafted studio tracks to accompany some of the most loved popular music in a wide variety of genres. They have performed thousands of shows to enthusiastic audiences around the country and in their own theatre in Delavan Wisconsin.

D'Lite

When one mentions D’LITE in the Lake Geneva resort community, it is difficult to find anyone who hasn’t heard one of their incredible performances. There is hardly a venue or festival that hasn’t featured them. The scope of an evening playlist can include almost any popular music genre including classic 80’s and 90’s dance songs, to R&B, Country and the most contemporary songs of the day. Dawn Soto is an amazing musician, playing sax, keyboards and brilliantly covering female vocals for the duo. Dan Blitz is an equally talented vocalist and guitar player. D’LITE covers a wide range of the most challenging popular music with uncommon musical skill and accuracy. Rosewood is delighted to share a regional musical treasure with our SUNSET ON THE PATIO audience.

Corner Boys

Dave Kunzweiler, Paul Hilderbrand and Michael Rothstein, aka Corner Boys, together bring their lifelong passion for music to the stage. The name Corner Boys comes from an east coast tradition of late night harmonies sung on the street corner.

Not your typical acoustic cover band, the Corner Boy’s playlist runs from Lyle Lovett, to Michael Jackson to the wonderful Kris Nichols. The attention to detail, dynamics and nuance makes for an evening of fabulous music. Our goal is to touch people with our music and to share the joy that we get from our art.

Alison Margaret

Alison Margaret is a gifted singer, arranger, composer, and pianist. She hails from Chicago, where she studied at the prestigious Columbia College, earning a degree in vocal jazz performance. She has a MM in music education from the University of Wisconsin-Madison. Several years ago Rosewood staff members took a “field-trip” to Madison to attend a performance by Alison. The evening was her skillful exploration of the music of Sara Bareilles. We instantly became Alison Margaret fans and looked forward to bringing her to Rosewood’s Sunset On The Patio.

Julien Kozak

Julien Kozak is a Milwaukee singer/songwriter with distinct baritone voice reminiscent of a young James Taylor, walking the bridge between folk and pop. Among his influences, James Taylor, John Mayer, and Ed Sheeran have inspired his soothing voice, intricate guitar melodies, and universally relatable lyrics. We receive dozens of inquiries to perform at Rosewood each season. Rarely does a performer make as profound an impression with just a single song. It is a privilege to introduce Julien to Rosewood’s Sunset On The Patio in 2023!

Cassandra Vohs-Demann

Cassandra has been performing professionally for over 25 years. She is a trained vocalist, writer, coach, actress, and an accomplished songwriter. She loves to use her musical gifts to bring people together and build community. Always a performer at heart, she is thrilled to be back singing regularly after a long hiatus. Come enjoy an evening of her original music and original arrangements of cover songs by artists she loves. Cassandra’s powerful vocals have been compared to Stevie Nicks, Brandi Carlile, Melissa Etheridge and Bonnie Raitt, just to name a few. 

Big Sky Acoustic Trio

With Rob Anderlik (dobro slide guitar) Phil Roach (violin) and Mike Church (guitar) – this Chicago based group is Steeped in Bluegrass, Blues and American Roots Music, The DB's bring an energy and love for improvisation and tradition bound with modern edges. Their bag is deep, drawing from old standards, classic rock tunes, swampy blues, traditional fiddle tunes as well as original compositions. The music is as contagious and exciting as it is organic and spontaneous. The Rosewood Audience has grown to love these guys as regulars each season of SUNSET ON THE PATIO!

Big Al & Jimbo

Allen Wetzel is a published singer/song-writer, accomplished multi-instrumentalist, and live performance veteran who is perfectly at home on any stage.

Having always had the itch to form his own band, Wetzel relocated to South-Eastern Wisconsin in 2008 and teamed up with the extraordinary guitar and vocal talents of like-minded musician Jim Ryan to form “The Big Al Wetzel Band”. Wetzel and Ryan initially honed their show as an acoustic duo, but when the phone began ringing off the hook for larger events, they eventually enlisted a most venerable rhythm section of S.E. Wisconsin music scene stalwarts – Geoff Howard (bass and vocals) and Tim Rush (drums and vocals).

Drawing from fan favorites of every genre (including Rock/Country/Pop/Blues/Funk/Reggae to name a few), the Big Al Wetzel Band delivers a jaw dropping spectrum of first class live music for high end events large and small throughout the Chicago Tri State area and beyond.

Phil Calkins

Phil Calkins is an audience favorite everywhere he entertains from the moment he fires up his acoustic twelve string guitar and raises his powerful tenor voice. The song selection is memorable, if not unforgettable, as Phil chooses his set list creatively from some of the most well-loved pop, country and rock music. Everyone is singing along and frequently couples are dancing to his music. Rosewood is once again fortunate to have guitarist, singer, songwriter and recording artist Phil Calkins performing for Sunset On The Patio at Rosewood!

Karen Shook

Karen Shook was born on Chicago's south side, the second of eleven kids. Her roots are planted in blues and soul.

Her passionate performance of “all the Feel-Good Songs” is captivating listeners around the Midwest. We look forward to introducing Karen to Rosewood’s Sunset On The Patio audience!

Derrik Procell

A soulful singer with a big, hairy baritone voice. A harmonica player who's melodic & tasty while playing down & dirty. A two-fisted piano player who drives the rhythm home. A smart songwriter who digs deep into soul and blues. Music you hear and never forget.
Derrick Procell is all of that.

Hannah Sattler

Hannah Sattler has been singing and making music since she was just a child. We became aware of her vocal talents while strolling through the park at the Walworth County Fair as she competed in a regional talent show there. Even at that age she was extraordinary and had a firm grasp on how to entertain an audience. Her musical abilities and her voice have only continued to mature and develop into the wonderful performer she is today! In 2020 Hannah was on American Idol all the way to Hollywood, just falling short of the top 40 contestants. Rosewood’s Sunset On The Patio is blessed to share our dear friend and her musical gifts with you!

Harlan Jefferson

Influenced by blues, jazz, R&B, gospel, and hip hop and instructed by his father A.Z. Jefferson, Jr., Harlan began performing at the age of 10. By the time he was in junior high school and active in bands, he became known locally as the “National Anthem Player,” performing at college, semi- and pro-ball games from Rockford and Chicago up to Milwaukee, Wis., including suburban areas.

A rapper/dj-turned-saxophonist, his reputation came full circle in 2006 with the release of the single “The Chicago Bears Anthem.” Written by Swade, Harlan Jefferson executive produced and promoted the ultra modern rap-with-class that was played in Chicago at one of the Bears games. The track was quickly picked up by DJs, who played it in the streets, in clubs, on the Internet, and on television stations and music and sports radio stations in Rockford, Chicago, and Indiana.

Anderlik, Culver & Church

Anderlik, Culver and Church have become crowd favorites at Rosewood – blending a unique mix of acoustic Bluegrass, Blues and American Roots Music.
