David Brighton as David Bowie
David Brighton is credited as being the world's best David Bowie impersonator, with one of the most entertaining tribute acts ever to hit the stage.
"David Brighton has the voice, moves and look to actually step in for David Bowie if he were unavailable and few would ever know. Experiencing David Brighton's Tribute to David Bowie made for a truly remarkable evening…" says Harry Maslin, the Producer of David Bowie's YOUNG AMERICANS and STATION TO STATION Albums.
Brighton's credits include performing side by side with David Bowie himself in the TV commercials for Vittel Mineral Water and for Reality - Bowie's new CD. Brighton was also cast to portray David Bowie in the upcoming Warner Brothers feature film, The Watchmen. He also recently appeared as David Bowie on VH-1 television as well as in international pop star Shakira's new concert video.
Brighton has performed worldwide on bills with some of the biggest acts the world has known, including: Elton John, Stevie Wonder, Devo, Kenny Loggins, Three Dog Night, Chicago, Little Richard and Barry Manilow. Brighton has performed at events for Arnold Schwarzenegger and Maria Shriver… Brooke Shields, Dustin Hoffman, Martina McBride, Sylvester Stallone, Jay Leno, David Foster, Catherine Zeta Jones and Michael Douglas, Barbara Streisand, Quincy Jones, Lisa Marie Presley and Nicholas Cage... to name a few.
This unforgettable stage production is complete with flamboyant costume changes, elaborate staging, perfectly emulated vocal stylings and one of the best backing bands in the business. All of the many faces David Bowie are present… from stadium-sized pop phenomenon, to space-age rock and roll alien Ziggy Stardust… and so is the excitement and electricity.
Before entering the world of celebrity impersonation, David played lead guitar with a number of popular recording artists, including the hit arena rock band, Quiet Riot... in which Brighton replaced the legendary guitarist, Randy Rhoads.
David also enjoyed the hysteria that went along with portraying George Harrison around the world with a number of the world's top Beatle groups, Including: Rain, The Stars of Beatlemania, The Fab Four, 1964, Twist And Shout, Classical Mystery Tour, and When We Were Fab.
"David Bowie has worked with David Brighton...What does that tell you about the credibility of a tribute artist?" - Las Vegas Review Journal
