Steve Waddington's Tribute to NEIL DIAMOND
NO ONE sings Neil Diamond like Steve Waddington! Yes, Steve plays the same type and style of acoustic guitar that Neil plays, and, yes, he has the de rigueur sequined outfits, but what really sets him apart from the other tributes is his amazing voice! He sounds more like the original Neil Diamond that we all remember so well from radio and recordings, but he adds a few flourishes and vocal nuances from Neil's later live shows. A vocal hybrid, if you will, from every era of Neil's 60+ year career (‘Diamond Jubilee’). Truly..."the Feel of Neil".
His backing band, the Diamond Jubilee Band, is comprised of the finest professional musicians working today, and they have the Neil sound DOWN! From the uplifting fun of “Cherry Cherry”, “You Got to Me”, and "Forever in Blue Jeans" to the reflective autobiographical tone of “Solitary Man”, “I Am I Said”, and “Brooklyn Roads”, to the more dramatic “Love on the Rocks”, “Hello Again Hello”, and “America", as well as the encouraged sing-alongs of “Song Sung Blue” and, of course, “Sweet Caroline”, everyone…Steve, band, and especially the audience…get immersed in the most authentic Neil Diamond experience you can have today! The only other concert that would sound as good as this would be seeing Neil Diamond himself!
“From the very first song, he captured the spirit, sound, and heart of Neil Diamond in a way that felt both authentic and deeply personal. His voice was spot-on, the song selection was perfect, and his connection with the audience made everyone feel included—whether they were lifelong Neil Diamond fans or just there to celebrate. He had guests singing along, smiling, and reminiscing all night long, which made the party truly unforgettable! "----Bonnie P. event coordinator
