It was my Aunts 80th birthday and we could not be there so I found Eric on gigsalad. He was perfect! Everything I has hoping for and more. He drove a long way in very cold/windy potentially icy weather, was on time, great communication and made my aunt smile! Even a bit teary eyed. She and all her guests were impressed and commented on how much he ones and sounded like dean martin! My aunt said she had only seen singing telegrams tv and it was the most unique gift. My cousin said that we definitely got our moneys worth! Thank you Eric for making my Aunts special day so perfect and the highlight of her party!

Dear Eric,
I wanted to thank you ever so much for the wonderful performance on Saturday! You made my parents’ 60th wedding anniversary truly memorable! From the moment you “stumbled“ into our living room, completely in character, you entertained us all with on point dean Martin songs and jokes.
You’re probably more accustomed to performing in front of a large audience, but you graciously treated us to an intimate showing for just our immediate family—just as a close friend would. And all this, at our last minute request and after driving (most likely) upwards of eight hours from your previous show. You made all of us feel very special with the connection you made with each of us and went above and beyond by singing all our favorites and requests! Even after all of this, you remained with us, sharing some very interesting stories about Dean Martin and his personal and professional life.
I couldn’t have been happier with the night’s experience and thank you very much. Anyone who is fortunate enough to see you perform is in for a real treat!
Kindly,
Nancy

So pleased with my “Deano-Gram!” Contacted Eric two days before taking my husband out for his birthday dinner and Eric made it work despite the last minute notification. Eric was charming and “exactly like Dean Martin” (according to my delighted Dean Martin fan husband). He sang duets with a couple of our dinner guests and provided great photo and video opportunities that we were able to share with family and friends who could not attend the dinner. Super value for the money— I could not be more pleased.

I booked Eric for a virtual call as an early Christmas present for my 4.5 year old nephew who is a HUGE Dean Martin fan. I introduced my nephew to that era of music earlier this year and he just fell in love. Eric was so professional, knowledgeable, talented, & most of all, kind. He went above and beyond to make sure he was ready for the call (in which he chatted and performed), he even told the kids his glass never has booze in it, but Martinelli’s apple juice to make sure his call was appropriate for the audience age group. He sang 4-5 of my nephews’ (& my) favorite songs & we would book him again in a heartbeat!

Response from The Summit Tribute Group, featuring Eric Richardson as Dean Martin:
Thanks, Pallie!!! You host a fine shindig!
Dino (as presented by the talented character, vocalist and singer) was a wonderful performance. 150 ladies enjoyed this performance at their luncheon. Many sang along and all laughed at his humerus anecdotes.
His voice is phenomenal. His auditory system was perfect. In addition he sang numbers from Elvis and Frank Sinatra with equally good talent!
He conducted himself in a very professional manner. He modified some parts of his program to our Christian group and the group we were representing. He arrived early and was well prepared. He was very personable to the audience and encouraged audience participation. The feedback I have received was extremely positive and I highly reccommend him.

Response from The Summit Tribute Group, featuring Eric Richardson as Dean Martin:

I was preparing a surprise birthday gathering for my mother's 75th, under a very tight deadline. I was looking for a performer who could dazzle my mom with some old classics, via a singing telegram. Luck was on my side - I learned about Eric's talents, and quickly contacted him and booked him. He was a pure joy to work with and made the arrangements easy. He was flexible, prompt, and thorough. My mother and the other guests were all dazzled - just as I had hoped. Eric brought Dean Martin to life, with great wit, comic moments, fantastic singing, and loads of charm. To top it off, he shared fascinating bits of history about Dean and the music industry. His knowledge about Dean is profound, and he brings him to life with great passion. I highly recommend Eric Richardson to anyone looking for top class entertainment. Thank you Eric/Dino!

Thank you, Janet, for your kind review. You and your gracious husband, made my "work" a pure pleasure!!! By the way, I would like to find a way to get another "gift" (my CD) to the lovely Birthday Girl...hopefully we can arrange it!

The Medical Staff at my hospital host a Dinner/Dance every year. Each year it is the same tired boring affair. This year was different. I took a really big risk changing it up on people who are very set in their ways and I am pleased to report it was a GIANT SUCCESS. My vision was more show, more entertaining, more fun and Eric Richardson as 'Dean Martin' delivered on all points. Not only did he bring his A game but he also collaborated with James Anthony as 'Frank Sinatra' and the Shades of Blue Orchestra to bring my vision of a 1940's Dinner and a Show to life.
His professionalism was all I could ask for.
His communication was better than any other entertainer I have ever dealt with.
At one point I asked what 'crazy' would cost me and I am happy to say I never fell out of my chair. I got my monies worth and then some... We booked a 2 hour show but Eric and James were so cordial to the guests (180 of them), taking pictures, shaking hands, and going table to table engaging everyone.
Best part of the event for me: I changed the name from Harvest Ball to Bella Notte (beautiful night) and Eric learned the song, shared it with Shades of Blue and the fantastic conductor Michael Walker arranged it for the band.
Happy Happy and looking forward to working with you again!!!!!

We couldn't be happier with Eric's performance for our dad's 90th birthday celebration! From the planning, to the actual event, Eric was a joy to work with and get to know. His presentation and show were unbelievable! All of us were charmed and awed by his singing and stage presence. Can't imagine Dean doing any better himself! We all would highly recommend Eric for any special occasion or event. He is very talented and was a lot of fun to get to know. We would definitely book him again in the future.

Eric took the time out of his vacation schedule to visit our friend on her birthday and deliver her a lovely telegram and Dean Martin songs. Our birthday girl loved the energy Eric brought to the performance as well as the quality of the songs he sang -- fully characterized as Dean. I would highly recommend Eric to anyone looking to send a singing telegram, as it was a truly wonderful experience for us.
Thanks Eric!

The show went over very well. They showed up on time and stayed around afterwards. Everyone had a great time. Dean(Eric) sang to my niece (14 months old) and we put it on YouTube "Baby Frankie Meets Dean Martin", and it has had so many views. I would recommend.

Eric's rendition of Dean Martin at the University Club atop the city of Jacksonville was one of style and grace. So personable, his performance equalled Dino's wit and humor and made it a fun night for all. My experience with many entertainers tells me he is one of the top singers and performers to be found on gigsalad.
![](https://cress.gigsalad.com/images/initial-icons/initial-s.png)
"Dean" stopped by Prudhomme's Lost Cajun Kitchen, Columbia for a guest appearance with his pal, our "Frank" and we enjoyed the tunes as much as our customers! We do shows monthly for years and LOVE it!

Eric Richardson wowed the crowd with his performance as Dean Martin. All the comments about him from the audience were perfectly outstanding. They said, it was as if Dean Martin himself was standing there performing. He is a true professional and an act you don't want to miss.

Eric Richardson did a consummate job in a tribute to "Dean Martin", both in voice and talent. He sang songs that brought tears to the eyes of some of my clients, hung out for photos and conversation till the event was over and never once, stepped out of character. My client rebooked him on the spot for his corporate party in Dec. of 2011. I would certainly recommend this talented individual for anyone who wants class, talent and a true tribute. (This was my second event with Mr. Richardson)

My husband and I saw “The Crooner and The Comic” with Eric Richardson as Dean Martin and Matt Macis as Jerry Lewis on Valentine's weekend. What a way to celebrate! The show was wonderfully funny and entertaining. My husband and I along with the people around us were in hysterics as Dean was trying to sing his romantic ballads while Jerry was doing everything he could to annoy Dean through his slapstick comedy. They played so well off of each other with their constant banter. Jerry was uninhibited and spontaneous while interacting with Dean and the audience; and Dean's smooth serenade and swagger were mesmerizing especially to the women. They do a terrific job at capturing the chemistry of the original entertainers. The audience seemed delighted and stayed long after the show had ended to talk to the duo up close. I would recommend them to anyone and I can't wait to see them again!

What to Expect
"Dino!", A Tribute to Dean Martin - "Just Being Frank With You", A Tribute to Sinatra
"A Meeting of the Summit"
Whether it be simply Eric as "Dino", Eric as "Sinatra", or a meeting of "The Summit" with "Frank" and/or "Sammy", you can always expect the un-expected. Each show is crafted to suit the specific venue. True, our dialogue and music are scripted with care and attention to detail, but...ya never know when something might happen to crack "Sammy" up, even make "Frank" smile!
Then there's "Gregory Peck" to consider...Whether you'd like his "Atticus Finch" to advise you, "Gen. Douglas MacArthur" to motivate you, or "Abraham Lincoln" to lead you, Peck's legendary film roles are ready for your consideration.
Now joining "Mr. Lincoln" in our P.O.T.U.S. line-up: "George Washington" (either President or General), "Ronald Reagan", and "Franklin D. Roosevelt" (w/ vintage wheelchair)
Looking for a perfect pirate crew? Let "Hector Barbossa" captain your ship!!! There are plenty of Johnny Depps out there, but only one tribute to Geoffrey Rush to choose from...(POTC 1st version)
And new to The Summit Tribute Group's stellar lineup, "Francis Scott Key"!!! As we have recently celebrated the 200th Anniversary of his writing of the Star Spangled Banner, who better to sing our National Anthem at your event?
If that's not enough, the "Summit Wedded Bliss" can provide any of these guys to officiate ceremonies for themed weddings and vow renewals...Let your imagination run wild, and just maybe "Elvis" will show up for a "Blue Hawaiian" affair, "Professor Severus Snape" is Always ready to accommodate a couple of Potterphiles, or even "Gen. Stonewall Jackson" can do the honors!
About
Eric is an actor, vocalist, and overall master of "character", having played diverse roles ranging from Fagin in "Oliver" to Sky Masterson in "Guys & Dolls". He has even recreated Gregory Peck's Atticus Finch in "To Kill a Mockingbird", (was the seed then planted for my future aspirations?) As a graduate of The American Musical & Dramatics Academy (NYC campus), Eric gained the tools necessary for his future successes in character development, as did his two year experience as Swing and U/S, for the 2nd National Touring Co. of the Broadway mega-hit "Annie". Having appeared in numerous roles on stage, in film and TV, Eric's approach to any character lies in the detail, which makes every one of his characters unique and whole. As a great fan of Dean Martin, Eric's pursuit of Dino's essential being is on-going and most rewarding. (Please note, that while Dino carries a glass and/or an unlit cigarette in his act, real alcohol is never permitted on my stage!)
While Eric has long been able to sing Dean's signature, "Everybody Loves Somebody", his immersion into "The King of Cool" himself, is a rather recent occurrence. In September, 2008, he attended the Sunburst Convention of Tribute Artists to "test the waters", at the strong suggestion of his wonderful wife, Patty. That success in Florida on only two weeks of prep, led to his first gig in Kansas City, at the KC Power & Light District's (central time zone) version of Dick Clark's "Rockin' New Year's Eve". Eric then teamed up with a "Jerry Lewis", and booked many great gigs as a Martin and Lewis Tribute, "The Crooner & The Comic". Their success led them to an invitation to perform at the 2009 Dean Martin Festival, which is held annually in Dino's hometown of Steubenville, Ohio. As a solo act, Eric was honored in 2012, receiving the "Classic Crooner" Reel Award, for his performance of "Dean Martin", at the 21st Annual Celebrity Impersonators Convention, held at the Golden Nugget Resort & Casino in Las Vegas!!!
Eric next added "Gregory Peck" to his tribute lineup!!! Currently appearing as his Abraham Lincoln ("The Blue & The Grey"), Gen. Douglas MacArthur ("MacArthur"), and Atticus Finch ("To Kill a Mockingbird")! In fact, he was brought to Miss Harper Lee's hometown of Monroeville, Alabama celebrate the release of her new book, "Go Set A Watchman"...and even participated in the first public reading, in the historic County Courthouse Museum (the same room as modeled in the classic film!). I was Eric's success with Peck's version of Lincoln, which led to his "Tributes to the P.O.T.U.S.", giving him the opportunity to present Ronald Reagan, F. D. R., and George Washington (as General, too!).
Based on an inquiry from a bride-to-be in Florida, Eric consented to perform her wedding ceremony as an infamous pirate captain! After seven months of R&D, his tribute to the work of Geoffrey Rush as Capt. Hector Barbossa, was "born". Now under the heading of The Summit Wedded Bliss, many choices are available for themed wedding and vow renewal officiants (ULC ordained), using any of the "characters" that The Summit Tribute Group can provide...even some yet to be created, so let your imagination run wild and make your event memorable!!!
On September 12, 2014, to help celebrate the 200th Anniversary of the Star Spangled Banner, Eric rolled out TSTG's tribute to Francis Scott Key, and was honored to sing our National Anthem at Baltimore's Oriole Park at Camden Yards! So if you need a suitable opening presentation for your event, please give us a call!!!
With all due respect to his Pallies that tribute Connery, Craig, Brosnan, et al; Eric has added James Bond to his list with The Summit Tribute Group! Eric even bears a resemblance to Pierce Brosnan!!! So, if you need a 007 (or 007&7, Matt Helm!) for your event in the Baltimore/Washington DC area...
And the journey continues... The latest addition to "The Group" is Eric's vision of the great surrealist, Salvador Dali!!! ("Hello Dali!") Now THIS should be interesting...Surreally!!!
Numerous opportunities and projects are on the horizon, so stay tuned, Pallies!
Additional Booking Notes
All I really need is...at least two Ding-a-Lings waiting in my private dressing room, a well stocked bar within crawlin' distance of the stage, an early tee-time at the local country club, and a good Western on the tube in a hotel suite (one where Frank can't find me). Awww, just havin' a little fun here, folks, that's all. Suitable to fit most any space, my compact sound system transports anywhere with ease. Fully orchestrated backing tracks sound great, but I can be persuaded to join in with your live musicians, as well!!! (TSTG owns over 600 big-band charts!)
