Chris' Reviews

5 out of 5

Well what a fantastic night we all had here! Dancing galore, with the most brilliant Chris Waites singing his Northern Soul hits, then his second half of Soul hits . Everyone loved his solo show and we have rebooked him again. I wish there were more acts than a handful in the North East of England . Well done Chris and don’t forget Keep The Faith. Sue & Phil - Durham Ox, Coundon.

Chris Waites, Top top entertainer! Sang for BT promotions at one of our dance festivals at Flamingoland, he was so good, we have booked him again for our 2 dance festivals in 2024 at Flamingoland, Where he will perform to over a 1000 people at each festival. If you like Soul and Motown and Northern Soul, Chris is the man!
