My
influences have been many over the years but I suppose my
main love has always been for the singer/songwriter types.
People like James Taylor, Jim Croce, Paul Simon, Neil Diamond
etc.
As
I have quite a low voice many people likened me to Neil
Diamond so I played on this eventually putting together
a tribute night.
Doing
a tribute night in a pub is extremely difficult. Mainly
because you may think you like a certain act but when it
comes to listening to 2 hours + only the true fanatics will
know much more than about 45 minutes (if that). For this
reason I have limited the tribute night to clubs where I
can put on a full night with backing singers and sometimes,
depending on budget, a support act. |
