Danny has done gigs for our company before as a solo act and has always been fantastic but this was on another level altogether. A brilliant band and all our favourite Orbison songs! The look, the sound and the voice were all very authentic, if I closed my eyes I’d swear I was listening to the real thing. Plus their 2nd set of general stuff had the whole place dancing. Brilliant, just brilliant. S. Wild (D & W Cars - Rochdale)
