Legal Question in Employment Law in California

I was negotiating with a local Elks to perform weekly karaoke shows. Negotiations were concluded and a contract from the Elks was forwarded to me for my signature and date. I signed the contracts and they acknowledged the return of the contracts. About one week later I discovered that they hired another karaoke host explaining that since they did not sign the contract (their contract), it was not valid.

I was under the impression that since it was fairly negotiated, drawn up, forwarded to me for my signature and return, it was a binding contract.
