Dolly Parton Tribute Acts: Kelly O'Brien

Kelly O'Brien is the UK's No.1 Dolly Parton tribute act although she's actually an Australian born singer, comedienne, dancer, actress and writer.

Country music has been her passion since the age of 14 and she has been a Dolly Parton impersonator since 2000 after winning first place in a highly prestigious talent contest held in Sydney.

The Dolly Show brilliantly captures the voice, personality and voluptuousness of the little lady from Tennessee. Dolly’s greatest hits combine with flawless comic timing in this extraordinary show.

Kelly is a world class entertainer with a stunning voice that captivates audiences with Dolly’s famous soprano in this must see show dedicated to the sound and style of Dolly at the peak of her career.

Kelly's performance is fantastic fun and much loved by Dolly devotees and debutantes alike.

Theatre credits include: a lead role in Andrew Lloyd Webber's smash hit musical 'Starlight Express'

T.V. appearances include: Gok Wan's How To Look Good Naked, Miss Naked Beauty and the X-Factor.

Kelly has performed for Nestle, British Airways and 7-UP

Reviews:
“She’s exactly like Dolly and her voice is just AMAZING!”

"Not sure who will read this but just wanted to give my personal opinion about Kelly's show. BRILLIANT! We've just come back from a week in Cyprus. There were several shows put on by First Choice and they were completely awful, not even good enough to be rejected by Britain's Got Talent. Then, on comes Kelly O'Brien (Dolly), a real treasure. I've seen many a tribute act and most have been laughable but as far as I was concerned we had Dolly Parton on stage. If you ever get chance to see her then you simply must. And for the record I'm not a big Country fan but I was completely blown away by a fabulous, funny and professional performance. Good luck Kelly for the future" – Tony Booth

Reviews:
"We were totally blown away with the outstanding performance that Girls Allowed gave at an event we attended recently. These girls are by far, one of the best tributes we have seen for a long time in the UK, they have style, charisma and above all they have real talent. With a look and sound of the real thing, they were able to keep a full house audience on their feet and dancing in the aisles during their performance. This fantastic tribute to Girls Aloud will certainly be around for many years to come entertaining audiences in the thousands and we wish them well" – Multimedia Entertainment's Group

"Not only are they stunning but these girls are the best act we have seen this year, they are going to go a long way – Pete Cross (PCA Ltd)

"Very professional and polished show" – Rob King (Corporate Event)

"Wow, these girls have come a long way over the past year. They were great the first time we saw them but now they are superb. Dazzling costumes and new songs, an outstanding performance – Jackie Fielder

"It is so refreshing to see a tribute of this kind where all members can actually sing! All five of these girls are very talented and they all sing the right parts for their character which will please die-hard fans. They also dance just like Girls Aloud with many of the same routines. This is what a tribute act is all about, very impressed" – Richard

E.L.O. Tribute Bands: Essential Light Orchestra

Electric Light Orchestra tribute band (Essential Light Orchestra) are an outstanding 5 piece harmony band. The founding members of the band Chris Hurley (lead singer) and Simon Meredith (guitar) discussed the idea a couple of years ago about putting together an E.L.O. tribute band.

They knew it wouldn't be easy to find the right musicians, they couldn't just be good, they had to be exceptional. Numerous auditions were held until the line up was finally agreed, Julian Hutchings on drums, Colin Elward on keyboards and Alun Walters on bass. All members of the band are completely professional with years of live performance experience under their belts. This is an uncompromising, painstakingly rehearsed show featuring some of the finest musicians in the UK. E.L.O. fans can now re-live the phenomenal success of this awesome live band all over again.

He also plays live piano and guitar on stage and does several costumes changes.
