Superb tribute to Sir Elton John
by Nigel John

Nigel’s musical training began in 1975 when he became a chorister at The Abbey School, Tewkesbury. He subsequently studied piano and organ under the late Michael Peterson and took his first position as organist at Holy Trinity, Tewkesbury, at the age of 16. Over the next few years he honed his song writing and composing skills working in several bands, and was responsible for much of the production of the material they used.

Nigel turned professional in October 1993, where until August 2005, he worked as a church Music Director in Loughborough. In that time, he led the music for numerous events and also wrote and produced the music to two musicals, ‘Love & War’, which premiered at Loughborough Town Hall in June 2000 and ‘From Darkness to Light’, a Christmas show which was first performed a year later.

Nigel has played with his Elton John Tribute show in both the UK and France, with his music being used as wide spread as Hungary and the USA. He is regarded by those in the know as 'THE' best Elton Tribute. He recently performed at a private function with well known Eleanor Rigby Experience vocalist, Tina McBain, when they put together a fantastic version of Don't Go Breaking My Heart. No doubt this will be repeated at the Big Night Out.

Nigel’s interest in Elton John actually began after the tragic death of rock legend Freddie Mercury, and after Elton’s new ‘hair-do’, it became very apparent that they looked very similar.

Nigel has just signed to a major management company to devlop not only his Elton John show, which quite frankly doesnt need developing, but to also establish him in his own right. His planned future CD release is expected to capture his finest work, and Nigel has often been described as an amazing talent. ‘The Best Of Me’ will includes a couple of re-arranged ‘classics’, two or three of Elton’s hits; (we’ll leave you to guess which ones), alongside a collection of Nigel’s much loved, and newer songs.

We can assure you that this is one show that must not be missed, the quality and content are simply the best - Nigel is simply the best - Oh no thats Tina Turner lol.

So what’s in store for the next show at the Big Night Out at Marston Farm? The answer is simple, only the very best. On Friday 12th September at 7.15pm we will be presenting a fantastic show featuring all the very best music of that fabulous glam rock era - The 70's. So hunt out your platforms, spandex and head onto the dancefloor.

The headliner of the show is, we feel one of the most impressive Elton John tributes on the ciruit today. Nigel John is quite simply awesome and unlike many of his contemporaries, he plays the music for the whole show live, he has the looks, the costumes, the mannerisms and the talent. Incidentally he is currently working with his new management to develop his own song-writing catalogue, but that's another story.

On 12th September he will be definitely in Elton John mode. His repertoire is astounding, so expect all the hits from ballads to rockers and the dancefloor fillers. His show will consist of 2 x 45 minute sets. We can safely guarantee you will be wowed by this very special show.

Support for the evening will be quite a special treat. For the highly regarded vocalist Tina McBain will perform a short set of her favourite 70's songs. Tina is of course well known for being the vocalist of the Eleanor Rigby Experience and has played with some if the countrys leading artists, including Kiki Dee, Phil Bates & Mik Kaminski of ELO and ELOll fame, plus a host of others.

The Magic of The 70's would not be complete, forgive the pun, without a little bit of magic, which is supplied by highly regarded magician & DJ, Scott Anderson, who worked for many years at the top midlands cabaret venue, Kings Theatre in Birmingham with such artists as Showaddywaddy, Joe Pasquale, Freddie Starr and The Searchers.

To round the night off Scott will be playing all those fantastic songs we know and love, and is guaranteed to fill the dancefloor with the sounds of Abba, Slade, T Rex, Bowie, Motown - all the fab hits from a fab decade.

The Big Night Out at Marston Farm Hotel gives its customers quality service and fantastic evenings to remember.

Tickets include a four course dinner and are priced at £25.00.

The doors will open at 7.15pm, dinner is at 8pm,
the cabaret commences at approximately 9pm.
