The Summit Tribute Group, featuring Eric Richardson as Dean Martin

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!

Eric stayed in character the entire act - everyone loved it!! Having family roots with Dean Martin made the evening that much more special to us. My wife was surprised, and although embarrassed, she couldn't stop talking about it all weekend! Thanks, Eric!

Awesome sums up the work of Eric. Very professional, stayed in touch and followed through! Excellent job!

Eric created a birthday video for a virtual celebration for my mother, who just turned 90. His performance was simply wonderful and my mom loved it. Thanks!

Eric provided a great Dean Martin for our Customer Appreciation Dinner - Highly reccomend Eric

Eric was transformed into Dean. My residents were thrilled and laughed, sang, and enjoyed every minute. I am blessed to know such a great person whose has the gift to show his talents in so many ways. Looking forward to the next event with him!!!

I put in a request for a Sinatra impersonator and within 15 minutes I received a call from Eric Richardson. He was funny, accommodating, and informative. It made my mother's birthday party very special! He is talented and looks the part!

He really livened up a small birthday party. Would hire him again!

Eric as Dean Martin was the perfect package, the look, voice and suave demeanor gave my mother a thrill for her 90th birthday, and crooned his way into all of are hearts. Can't wait to see him again!

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.

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!

We had a wonderful evening with Eric Richardson as Dean Martin and James Young as Frank Sinatra. They provided entertainment for the cocktail reception and dinner portion of our corporate holiday party. We would highly recommend both of them.

Eric was just terrific at our event. Talented, professional, fun and really a nice person. Wonderful voice, brought everything he needed to perform, made it easy. Thank you.

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!

Eric is a great singing talent!

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.

"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)

Eric is great as Dean Martin! He's got him down to the pinky ring! Great method actor. If he's in your area, make a point to see him!

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!
