The Traveling Salvation Show
A tribute to Neil Diamond’s area tour days
Described as “TransSiberian Orchestra meets the music of Neil Diamond”
Christmas/Holiday show offering
The Traveling Salvation Show is a one-of-a-kind tribute to the legendary Neil Diamond. Often described as “Neil Diamond’s greatest hits performed by the Trans-Siberian Orchestra”, this high energy performance captures the energy of Mr. Diamond’s live arena concerts and includes a visual spectacular with over 40 fixtures that include moving lights, sparks, geysers and lasers. Bottom line: it’s “so good, so good, so good!”.
The show is fronted by Brother Love himself, Mr. Jay Henke who many fans have commented sounds uncannily like Neil Diamond. While not a visual “impersonator”, Jay’s vocals pay a true homage to what fans of Mr. Diamond would expect to hear at a tribute show. Next come the incomparable Diamond Ladies, our incredible backing trio made up of Leigha Sronce, Courtney Walker and Liz White. There are no “auto-tune” units in sight with these ladies, and each one of them will take center-stage at one point during the performance to pay their unique homage to Mr. Diamond.
Finally, the Salvation Show Band impeccably recreates the sound of Neil’s famous NDRRT musicians, bringing the sound, energy and arrangements that are hallmarks of that group to the Salvation Show stage. Dan Farroll and Jeff Pawlow play keys, Jeff Lewis and Sebastian Sronce play bass and lead guitar respectively, and Tim Ilko and Rick Turcotte handle all the drums and percussion.
In terms of the show, our guests can plan to walk away having experienced all of Neil Diamond’s greatest hits. A typical 2-set performance runs approximately 2.5 hours and includes 28 songs, Diamond trivia, and fun ways for the audience to participate in the show! Wearing sequins is not required, but highly encouraged!
