Since ‘Amarillo’ enjoyed a new found audience, Tony Christie has been deservedly thrust back into the limelight. A whole new generation is discovering his catalogue of wonderful songs,Paul has performed his tribute to Tony Christie around the UK, even performing at The Doncaster Dome around the corner from Tony’s home.

This tribute came about when audience members and bookers remarked on Paul’s facial similarity to Tony Christie. The fact that their voices are similar set the seal and Paul created his tribute.

Since the re-release of Amarillo, Tony Christie has once again been in the headlines and back on tour in the UK.

Paul Kaye has created a tribute act based on the hits and live show numbers of Tony Christie from "Avenues and Alleyways", "I did what I did for Maria", "Hey Las Vegas", “Daddy don’t you walk so fast” and many more through to the inevitable "Amarillo", with classic live numbers from Tony’s act such as “Old man river”, “On Broadway”, “Solitaire”, “Didn’t we”, “You’ve lost that loving feeling” and “Hey Jude”

This fun show lasts around an hour and is filled with a good blend of ballad and up tempo classic pop for all ages. Paul can work self contained providing PA and engineer if required.

Paul was born in Garndiffaith, a mining village in the valleys above Pontypool in Gwent, South Wales and started performing at the age of six. He has appeared for many years in concerts, cabaret and revues throughout the UK and abroad and recently appeared in a Royal Variety Show, in front of the Duke of Kent, in the West End. At home in front of theatre or cabaret audiences Paul works with a live band or self contained with tracks depending on the venue and the budget. He has a PA system that is flexible enough to fit most occasions and travels with an engineer if required. Paul’s repertoire includes a vast variety of material compiled during his extensive career, so he can adapt to most audience requirements, from classic ‘swing’ numbers to ‘show’ songs to pop standards.

Paul’s act can include a number of ‘tribute’ sections from Tom Jones to The Rat Pack, Neil Diamond, Harry Secombe, Mario Lanza, Josef Locke, Roy Orbison, Buddy Holly, Elvis, Memories of The Cavern, Old Time Music Hall, Rogers and Hammerstein, Matt Monro and Tony Christie. During some of the above Paul also plays guitar. In short Paul’s act can be tailored to suit your occasion, having played to audiences that vary in size from 20,000, backed by the Band of the Irish Guards, to a handful of people in a small club whilst singing to backing tracks. Sometimes the most fun can be had singing in a smaller venue to an intimate audience. Paul has just been rebooked for the third year running to perform on New Year’s Eve at a hotel with such an audience. Performing 2 x 45 minute spots during the earlier part of the evening, Paul chooses a flexible program to accommodate the wide range of age groups and has a wonderful time building up the atmosphere! Paul has performed at hundreds of Masonic Ladies nights in London and the provinces and can, if required perform the ‘Ladies Song’. He is a member of Chelsea Lodge, known as ‘The Entertainer’s Lodge’ .

Paul also Played the lead role in “This is my song” a show based on the life and music of the legendary Sir Harry Secombe and appeared in the musical revue ‘London to Broadway’ directed by Dougie Squires.

» Testimonials

"One of the evening’s real highlights was the performance of Welsh balladeer Paul Kaye. Kaye reminded us that he still has lots to offer us as a solo cabaret artist. Memories of the great Anthony Newley were evoked with a superbly sung version of “What Kind of Fool Am I?” which certainly raised the hairs on the back of this reviewer’s neck."
- The Stage

"Kaye has somehow continually slipped through the net of top London show promoters, how can someone with his vocal talents not be a household name in Britain? He has a fantastic range and immense voice power."
- The Stage

"There was a strong supporting cast featuring the superb singing power of Paul Kaye, He is one of the greatest undiscovered singers in Britain."
- The Stage

"Linda & I wanted to thank you for entertaining us last week at the Anglo Swiss Hotel in Bournemouth. We really enjoyed your singing, your humour and your company. It was by far the best Presentation Evening we have ever staged for our Golf Club - thanks to you."
