The Neil Diamond Story returns for a very special night. Not an imitation – a full concert celebration of an icon.
The evening begins with Caroline Hawke celebrating the music of Barbra Streisand, bringing her extraordinary voice to some of Streisand’s most loved songs, before joining Jason Taylor as he takes centre stage with the 10-piece Hot August Night Show Band. Stuart Wyatt on keyboards, Rob 'Sweet Tone' McGreal on acoustic guitar, Rick Varlet on electric guitar, Peter Kaighin on percussion, flute and Hammond, Rohan Gray on drums and John Lebesis on bass, together with the superb Diamond Sisters: Caroline Hawke, Tracy Tuhakaraina and Donna McConville.
This is Neil Diamond’s extraordinary catalogue performed with the scale, passion and musicianship it deserves.
