Dino, Diamond & Cash

All of Steve Waddington's tribute shows are exciting, entertaining, and filled with fun.
During the course of a show, the audience will be delighted hearing their favorite songs, and watching this performer entertain. Steve doesn't just sing AT his audience, he sings WITH them! He has a relaxed charm, a quick wit and makes everyone feel like they are part of the event. No matter what the venue, he creates a party atmosphere.
His backup band is made up from the very best, most versatile musicians in Southern California. Even his smallest combo has a very big sound, without being overly loud. Sometimes a venue or budget restriction dictates a more streamlined event, but that's OK too! The track show…with Steve in full costume and playing the proper guitar, and the best sounding backing tracks available…is a blast and it sounds great, because Steve always brings a sound engineer to assure the best sound for the venue, enabling Steve to keep his attention focused on the audience!

"Dino, Diamond & Cash"
"Dino"...
Steve has it all...the mannerisms, the voice, the charming playfulness. Close your eyes, and you'd swear it was Dino singing all his hits. Open your eyes, and you won't believe how much fun you'll have watching him create the illusion of one of our most beloved icons. From solo "Dino" shows, to various "Rat Pack", "Frank & Dean", "Martin & Lewis", and vintage variety shows, Steve brings Dino to life as no other entertainer can. Now, That's Amore!!!

"Diamond"...
Steve's show, "The Feel of Neil" is about as close to the real thing as you can get! From the sequined jacket to the acoustic guitar and the voice that completely captivates, he really sounds and performs just like Neil! When he sings "Solitary Man", "Cherry Cherry", "I Am, I Said", "Holly Holy", "America", and "Sweet Caroline", on through to the sentimental favorites like "Love On The Rocks", "September Morn", and "Play Me", it makes you feel like you are in-concert with the Real Neil in his prime! Rose Diamond (Neil's mom) told Steve "You have a beautiful voice, and you sound SO much like my son!" Pretty amazing, Grace!

...& "Cash"...
Steve's "Johnny Cash" tribute show, "CASHIN' IN", is simply the best there is! With his rich, deeply resonant voice, and his tall commanding presence, he re-creates the magic of "the Man in Black". At a gig they did together, Kris Kristofferson said "You sound so much like Cash, it's scary!", and then he autographed Steve's guitar! You'll see why when you hear Steve sing everything from "I Walk the Line" to "The Man Comes Around", from "Folsom Prison" to "I Won't Back Down" and from A Boy Named Sue" to "Hurt", and many more. Wink Martindale summed it up best when he said "You don't even have to LIKE country music to LOVE Johnny Cash...and we LOVE Steve singing Johnny Cash!" Yeah, he walks the line!

A veteran of clubs, casinos, film, television and events, Steve brings the total entertainment experience to audiences world wide. He has appeared in supporting roles on TV and film, and as a solo performer. or as part of staged performance or review, Steve brings his years of professionalism and experience, as well as his amazing sense of humor and timing, to every production ensuring that audiences and cast members alike have fun and a memorable experience. The BEST!
