REM Tribute have been around since 1996. Formed by Rick, the original line-up gigged mainly in the North of England and Scotland. Over the next few years Rick also fronted Midlands based “Monster” playing many gigs throughout the U.K and Europe, honing and perfecting Michael Stipe’s very individual stage persona.

Quotes

Client Comments
We could not have asked any more from JC who provided the entertainment on our wedding day. Not only did he put on a stunning couple of Elvis sets, but he ran an Elvis karaoke and then played the music at the rest of wedding filling the floor for almost the entire evening. People have told us that our wedding was the best they have ever been too and JC’s contribution to our day cannot be overstated. If you are thinking about booking him just do it – you won’t regret it.

Being and entertainer was unavoidable for Kevin. His father was a singer/pianist, his mother a 1950′s model and members of his family appeared in films alongside the likes of Richard Burton, Peter Sellers, Michael Caine and David Niven.

It was from around the age of five that Kevin first discovered ‘the American song book’. Singing Pennies from Heaven accompanied by his father, who’s constant renditions of Gershwin, Porter and Berlin were to leave an irreversible impression.

Come Fly with Me

I Get a Kick out of You

 Lady is a Tramp

By his early twenty’s, Kevin found himself in the company of and performing with other like minded aficionado’s. Their profound knowledge and musicianship helped forward his studies. These included the likes of American saxophonist Spike Robinson, John Crithinson (piano accompanist with Ronnie Scott), and bass player Lennie Bush, who sessioned on Frank Sinatra’s album ‘ Great Songs from Great Britain’.

Kevin has performed at a huge variety of venues, ranging from top London Hotels (i.e The Savoy, Dorchester etc.), The Institute of Director’s, The Variety Club of Great Britain, many corporate events (large and small), jazz clubs, weddings, stately homes, large hotel groups (UK and overseas), Southend Airshow and even at a primiership football match @ Southhamptons’s ground St. Mary’s.

With his immense stage presence. Kevin delivers his tribute in a sophisticated manner the great Sinatra deserves. He proves, without question, that when you possess the same impressive vocal ability as Sinatra, being an exact ‘lookalike’ is not needed to recreate Sinatra in his vocal prime and mature years. He performs effortlessly not only the less challenging songs but also the more vocally difficult. In his act he uses only the best quality live recordings of American big band arrangements or can be backed by anything from a piano to a full piece big band. The result of all this being a truly memorable experience.

Sorry its taken so long for me to get back to you but I just wanted to say what a fantastic singer Kevin is as Frank Sinatra he made my wedding day go off superbly. People haven’t stopped talking about it and with kevin singing I achieved the atmosphere I was looking for. Everyone thought he was fabulous so I can’t thank him enough for making my day!

Please could you pass on my thanks.

Kind regards
Penny.

Kevin is an amazing guy in everyway:
“Take one special occasion, add over a hundred guests, sprinkle a little light and some fine wine to taste. Once all of this has been thoroughly mixed, slowly include your Frank Sinatra and you will find you have the perfect night. Kevin (from here on known as Frank) was the epitome of professional entertainment going so far as to allow the groom to sing along with him.

When I first saw Frank enter the room I was a little apprehensive as he was dressed as the young Frank, this assumption was dashed by his choice of songs. They not only enhanced a time we shall never forget but reflected in our opinion the great style and uniqueness that was Frank. In a sentence, I want this man at our birthdays, weddings, christenings, Christmas…….. I think you get the picture. It only leaves me to thank Frank for being with us. Thank you Frank (Kevin)”
We are pretty sure he will have future bookings from our friends.
 
Thanks so much.

Too close for comfort
Too marvelous for words
Volare
Where or when
Witchcraft
With plenty of money and you
Wives and lovers
You brought a new kind of love
You’d be so easy to love
You make me feel so young
You’re getting to be a habit
You’re nobody ’til somebody loves you
