About the performers
Gemini
John “Gemini” Lombardi was born and raised in Brooklyn, New York. With his quick sense of humor and witty personality, Gemini decided to start performing at the young age of eleven. He took his act to streets of New York City, where his only audience was a crowd of passersby and neighbors. With his energetic charisma and quick wit, he brought the crowd to tears of laughter. It was then he began his professional career in comedy.
Today, Gemini has performed on Fox5, NBC, Showtime, and at hundreds of comedy clubs, casinos, resorts, and theaters across the country! Gemini is now a top headliner at The Borgata Casino, Dangerfield’s, The Parx Casino and Caroline’s on Broadway! Professional comedian, accomplished ventriloquist, award-winning magician.

Justin Gonzalez
Justin Gonzalez (tenor) knew from a very young age that music would be something extraordinary in his life. Being a poor kid from The City of Brotherly Love, he didn’t know that he had a seat at the table. At 13 years old, Justin was invited to join a chorus as a soloist in Germany and France. In that two weeks, Justin had the opportunity to perform in many castles, mansions, and historic houses of worship. The most memorable moment for him was singing in the Cathedral of Notre Dame in Paris, France. At that moment, Justin found his place card, along with his seat at the table.
After years of laying the groundwork for a promising career as an opera singer, at the age of 18, Justin was diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis, an autoimmune disease. One of the symptoms of MS is memory loss. His opera career was over just as it began.
Sharing stories through music was something that Justin couldn’t just walk away from. Today, 20 years since that first tour, Justin Gonzalez is still a sought-after classical music soloist. He is also a practitioner of the American Song Book and the music of Broadway. Justin uses all of this music to entertain, educate, and share his story.
When Justin isn’t singing with the world’s best classical musicians, popular music performers and writing his music to perform with the Justin Gonzalez Trio, he is the lead singer of 33 ⅓ LIVE’s Killer Queen Experience. KQE faithfully recreates the studio recordings of the legendary rock band Queen. Justin and his ten bandmates take you back to the days of listening to your favorite Queen albums nightly!
