The power couple, Melissa Behring & Jake Tobias, formerly known as 7 Million Jigawatts provide live acoustic music interpretations of popular Rock, Pop, R&B and Country songs spanning the past seven decades.

Their career together began in 2003 with the rock & soul band “7 Million Jigawatts,” performing at festivals and clubs around the midwest. Their first single, “I’ve Got You Covered”, was featured in an advertising campaign for the 2010 Ford Mustang.

In 2011, Melissa & Jake began performing exclusively on Princess Cruises ships, in The New Deal Band and spent nearly seven years entertaining audiences around the globe.
