Who is Rainmaker?

Mike Cavale started producing shows in Visalia, CA in 1995 as a means to bring positive entertainment to Visalia for his three sons, which then branched out to benefit concerts for local charities. In 2006, a local news story on Cavale referred to him as a "rainmaker" for his ability to attract quality acts like Tony Bennett.

Ryan Stillwater learned the ropes of live entertainment from the ground up from mentors like Cavale while spending seven years at the Fox Theatre in Visalia, CA — three of them as the in-house Talent Buyer. Stillwater now resides with his family in Tennessee.
