“We booked Wayne and his tribute to Neil Diamond for our annual company dinner and we most certainly weren’t disappointed. He did all the favourites and had everyone singing along to their hearts content. Hit after Hit after Hit after Hit. Wayne’s voice resembled so much to that of the real Neil Diamond it was uncanny!” – SANDWELL ACCOUNTANCY

My husband & I have seen your tribute on two occasions at The Grove Theatre Dunstable. I think the last time was either 2 or 3 years ago. I regularly check their events section on their website. Please come back to entertain us again soon. I truly hope this will be possible for you as we would really love to see and hear you again. We have told so many people about your show, how much we enjoyed it and how they should go see it and they will not be disappointed!” – Eunice
Not a problem. We can be flexible with time changes as long as the agency is notified as soon as possible.
Our sound and performance. Their audience frequently comments on how great and accurate they sound to Neil Diamond himself and how energetic our performance is. We always get people up to dance.
