Vintage Orbison... A truly international Artist!
The Best Roy Orbison Tribute He has toured Australia(with a 20 piece orchestra) Canada Europe and Asia and with starring Regional and West End Theatre credits Vintage Orbison is world renowned as probably the best Roy Orbison tribute. His exceptional vocal ability is instantly recognizable effortlessly performing Roy's songs in the original keys for those all important high notes. He emulates the voice of Roy Orbison's Iconic early career when he was at his best and most powerful.
Vintage Orbison played the legend in 'The Concert they Never Gave' on several UK theatre tours for E&B productions (producers of 'Buddy' in the West End) and in 2005 Vintage Orbison headlined on a massive outdoor show in Perth Australia backed by a 20 piece orchestra & supported by Pepsi's Voice of Elvis Johnny Earle. He performed on BBC1 with Westlife sharing the bill with The Sugababes Lemar Katie Melua Boy George & Lulu and more recently in 2009 saw Vintage Orbison on a tour of Holland and the UK with the hit hit theatre show 'Rocking on Heaven's door' and several other theatre shows across the UK.

"You are, without doubt, the second best Roy Orbison I have ever seen! Remember, I saw the other (real) one, twice. I wanted the evening to be an experience people would remember and, thanks to you, it was certainly that. The response has been amazing! Thank you so much."

"Vintage Orbison transformation from Roy Orbison to Meat Loaf certainly made a few mouths drop in surprise. His Simply Red rendition was very authentic and most enjoyable particularly for anyone that is a Simply Red fan.
The feedback from people concerning all the acts was very positive and I would say without fear of contradiction was enjoyed by the majority."

"Hi Ian,
Just a short note to say a big thanks for the gig you did for us last Friday, despite the power problems everyone throughly enjoyed it and it was a great evening.
Your act was first class, attracted the biggest audience we’ve had this year! ... and I would not hesitate in recommending you to anyone - Keep up the good work,
Regards and good luck

08/10/2010 (Roy Orbison) Vintage Orbison
"Vintage Orbison morphed into the Big ‘O’ for his first set, and the resemblance was creepily close. I guess most of us were on the edges of our seats wondering if he was going to reach that first high note in his opener “Only The Lonely, and this he did with ease to good applause, at that point we settled down knowing the rest of the performance would be class.
The 15 Orbison numbers sung that night included one of his last recordings with the Travelling Wilbury’s “You’re Not Alone Anymore,” but it was “Mean Woman Blues” with live harmonica which got the dancers to the floor. “Pretty Woman” had the audience hand-clapping and a yelpin’, but I was curious as to how he was going to handle “Crying” - another excellent version of an Orby classic and he actually played his guitar, not mimed as some tributes annoyingly do.
Interestingly he mixed up the evening with some soul material, OK, not UK Rock fodder, but his treatment of some Ben E. King and Temptations material shows how diverse this Roy Orbison is. A very entertaining evening with a warm bond between the audience and entertainer.
