Dusty Springfield Tribute Acts: Maxine Mazumder

Dusty Springfield tribute act 'Maxine Mazumder' presents the ultimate tribute to this sixties soul icon. She was a live grand finalist on ITV's 'Stars In Their Eyes' as Lulu.

Maxine started performing at junior school, she put vocal groups together and they'd do little shows at break and dinner time. The headmaster recognised her raw talent even at this tender age and asked her to perform at the school disco.

She appeared on 'New Faces' as the lead vocalist in a band called 'Strange Rooms' then went on to perform in numerous touring productions as female lead singer.

The look and mannerisms are eerily accurate and Maxine revels in the power and emotion involved in each of Dusty's unforgettable ballads.

During her career she has travelled extensively, countries include: Cyprus, Majorca, Ibiza, Menorca, Italy, France, Sweden and Switzerland.

Reviews:
"I love every single number in the show, there just isn't a weak song, she had some brilliant writers and producers around her but at the end of the day it's down to the way Dusty delivered on every vocal, she was awesome"

Lady Gaga Tribute Acts: Haus of Gaga

Lady Gaga tribute act 'Haus of Gaga' is one of the UK's top tributes to this pop rock icon.

The power behind Haus of Gaga is 'Sharon Anne Chandler', a singer and musician in her own right. She has toured worldwide in various bands and even had chart success with her own songs.

As soon as Lady Gaga hit the scene, many people compared Sharon to her, the vocal likeness is quite astonishing. With overwhelming support for her to launch her own tribute show Sharon immediately set to work and has studied her movements and mannerisms to the nth degree.

This is a full on, in your face production as you'd expect from a Lady Gaga performance. Sharon definitely doesn't tame it down for anyone, this Gaga tribute artiste is over the top and theatrically sexy.

Haus of Gaga is a vivacious explosion of dance, costumes, theatrics and 100% live vocals all packed into a show that will excite you. You will hear all of Lady Gaga's biggest hits, bespoke musical backing has been produced to an extremely high standard using session musicians to create an amazing live sound.

This package also comes with a state of the art sound system and spectacular lighting which can be adapted to suit most venues. Haus of Gaga offers something a little bit different to the norm, a lot like Lady Gaga herself.
