MEET THE TEAM

    Jared & Ashley
    Owners

    Husband and wife team Jared and Ashley Thompson met in 2009, started a little party band called IDT, fell in love in the process, got married, started the greatest entertainment company in the universe, made a freakin' cute kid, and the rest is history. It's your standard American dream rockstar love story.

    Jared is a multi-instrumentalist and producer, and while he played guitar in IDT long ago, he primarily spends his time behind the scenes developing the show and managing the business.

    Ashley, and her phenomenal vocal talent, are the only reason Jared has anything to do. Her talent has kicked open doors for the company, and her mentorship has enabled 1564 to continually attract and develop the most sought-after performers.

    Mike
    Level 5 Computer Hacker

    Mike actually isn’t even that good with computers. We just never came up with a title for him, because he does whatever needs to be done! Whether it be assisting in sales, managing social media, or sourcing emergency Starbucks, Mike is there to answer the call. Oh, and he’s a freaking amazing vocalist.

    Mike joined 1564 in early 2016, and is currently the band leader and lead male vocalist for IDT Band.
