Buddy Holly - The Legend Lives On

Professional ex-London Buddy performing all the hits of the bespectacled rocker, along with some amazing guitar licks and authentic backing tapes.

Nick first payed tribute in 2002 and has since has performed in various shows including Buddy, The Buddy Holly Story, Rock n' Roll Paradise, Rockin' On Heavens Door, Marc Robinsons Counterfeit Crickets and Bootleg Buddy.

Nick has been performing tributes to Buddy now for over 6 years, so the show is extremely polished. He has backed a number of other well known rock n’ roll artists over the years and have played to sell out audiences of thousands of Buddy fans. Wherever he has played, he has always received a tremendous response from the audience.

The show is a spectacular tribute to Buddy’s classic and eternal tracks. With hits such as That‘ll be the Day, Rave On, Peggy Sue and It Doesn’t Matter Anymore as well tracks of his more obscure albums such as Rock Around with Ollie Vee, Fools Paradise, Blue Days Black Nights and Reminiscing, you are sure to be captivated for the entire performance.

During the show, the Nick takes you on a musical journey through the early years of Buddy’s career, introducing some classic rockabilly numbers as made famous again by Buddy’s first album Holly in the Hills, and finally brings you up to 1959 with Buddy’s final album recorded just months before the tragic plane crash that claimed his life, along with those of the Pilot-Roger Peterson, J.P. Richardson-otherwise known as The Big Bopper and the incredible pelvis thrusting Ritchie Valens.

As Buddy Holly, in three short years managed to record over two-hundred tracks, Nick constantly updates the show to reflect Buddy’s live performances, hence the massive number of songs in the repertoire and costumes in his wardrobe.

Whatever your entertainment needs, we can provide you with a show to suit. Being a completely self contained show, with it's own PA and lights and being fully insured and PAT tested, makes the show 100% professional and reliable.
