JOHN RICHARD > vocal entertainer

Already an established musician with Norfolk based duo 'TWICE AS NICE'

In 2001 I decided to make use of the latest technology and go it Solo ~ Since then the act has been booked all over East Anglia.London and the Midlands. Useing computor back tracks with hundreds of tracks through three different size P.A systems, so I can work any size venue. I also feature harmonica and percussion in the act - and always strike up a good rapport with the audience . The act can be booked as a cabaret spot or an 'all-nighter' and since its launch has progressed into comedy, and also specialises in Cockney and WW11 40s themes ~ when required.

Much of the comedy is based around nostagia and reminiscence, going back to Rock'n'Roll, Radio Luxemborg, the hand jive and such and coupled with the music of the times ~ you won't keep 'em off the dance floor!

BEST YOU BOOK ~ JOHN RICHARD ~ AWRITE?!!

After 30 years of entertaining and being a lover of the "older" style of music the logical step was entertainment for care and residential homes, and since 2002 I have entertained at hundreds of different establishments, in four counties with return bookings to many of them

I have a bit of a cheeky act, the music dating from the thirties right up to suitable material of the current age,this mingled wtih some comedy if the folks are up to it,

and a walk down memory lane in some of the program.

My "cockney" sing-a-long act-fully costumed,is always a hit, and I try to

feature songs from all parts of the country.

Also being self-contained with computorised back tracks I take up very little room

and am always very concious of the volume
