Coming to the Malthouse Theatre, Canterbury on Sunday 13th April! Described in Las Vegas as "one of the world's finest vocal tributes to Neil Diamond", Bob Drury is back touring the UK with his incredible acoustic show celebrating the legendary Neil Diamond and his five decades of hit songs. This award-winning one-man show is an absolute 'must-see' for any Diamond fans. Prepare to be blown away by his vocal likeness, which has been delighting audiences around the world, combined with his stunning prowess on the guitar.
By taking some of the songs back to how they were originally written, with just voice and guitar, Bob brings a whole new dimension to the songs, particularly the beautiful guitar ballads that have a genuine depth of emotion when stripped right back. The show still includes loads of Neil Diamond’s blockbuster hits such as 'Sweet Caroline', 'Cracklin' Rosie', 'Play Me', 'Hello Again', ‘Song Sung Blue’, 'Beautiful Noise', 'Red Red Wine' and 'Forever in Blue Jeans' so get those voices ready to sing along! There are also a few lesser-known songs that are sure to become your favourites by the end of the show. A fantastic evening guaranteed!
"an uncanny resemblance to Neil Diamond's voice. That sent tingles down my spine Bob!" Debbie McGee, BBC Radio Berkshire
"Bob, it was great hearing you last night and I was totally blown away by your level of musicianship on guitar" Mark LeVang, keyboard player with Neil Diamond's band
"Bob is well established as one of the world's finest vocal tributes to Neil Diamond" Steve Tatone, Film Producer, Midnight Pass Productions, USA
“If I didn’t know better I’d have said that was Neil Diamond singing” Pat Marsh, BBC Radio Kent
“Without doubt, the best Neil Diamond tribute in the UK. The vocal accuracy is astonishing!” – Chris Neilson (Artistic Director) First & Foremost Entertainment Ltd
“….oozing class” Nolan Dean, Cruise Director, M/V Island Star
"Neil Diamond fans will be delighted with the sound-alike quality and the nifty guitar work" UK Cabaret Magazine
“The thing that makes Bob Drury stand out is, he is a really fantastic guitarist. His vocal is superb and with just three guitars and a banjo Bob Drury professionally led us through this remarkable back catalogue. The songs are handled with the respect and admiration that is rare from some tribute acts.” Owen J. Lewis, LoveShrewsbury.com
