The show covers all Bowie's classic hits from the 70s and 80s and includes a completely live acoustic version of the classic Space Oddity.



Bootleg Bowie UK is a fully self-contained show.

The sound system is versatile and compact yet powerful enough to suit most small to medium sized venues.

Some minimalistic stage lighting is used to enhance the performance.

The show format is available as 2 x 35min sets or 1 x 60min set.

Testimonials

Hi Nick, Just a quick note to say thank you so much for your performance on Saturday at Beckenham. It was a real pleasure to work with you & your sound guy (sorry forgot his name). I have had loads of positive feedback from the event. If anybody asks me about a David Bowie tribute you will be very much recommended. I look forward to working with you again soon.

Nick played at my 40th party. His Bowie act was superb, the way he performed Bowie through the years
was brilliant. Everyone was up dancing and singing along to all his classic numbers. I would definitely recommend Nick's act to anyone who is a Bowie fan, all round great entertainment.

Dear Nick, Sorry for the delayed reaction just wanted to say a huge thank you to you and the DJ team for providing the entertainment at my event for Countess Mountbatten Hospice Charity. Feedback I've had from people who bought tickets was all great, I certainly enjoyed myself more than at most events you were great at keeping the evening on track and me organized!!

Bootleg Bowie UK was easy and very efficient. Absolutely brilliant is the only way to describe him for our son's welcome home party. We would highly recomend Bootleg Bowie UK to anyone who is a Bowie fan - not forgetting his sound engineer who was a really nice man and made sure everything went smoothly.

I am thrilled with the show that Nick put on for my Labyrinth birthday party - there were 2 parties taking place in the venue on the night, and bar staff were specifically requesting to work at mine so that they could see the act! The guests all commented on what a good show Nick put on, they loved that he had a few different costumes and that he covered so many different eras of Bowie's music. They also loved how enthusiastic he was and how he kept character during the performance. Personally, I thought he did a great job - he sounded brilliant, paticularly during the second set on numbers like Modern Love; and he really did put on a great show to get the crowd going. A few numbers in and they were all really caught up in the atmosphere Nick created - you couldn't have dragged them off the dance floor if you'd tried, they were having a fantastic time! I was especially pleased that he was able to do a couple of songs from the film, as none of the other Bowie tributes I'd researched offered that as an option. As the World Falls Down was stunning, and the guests were especially excitable during Underground and the mix track of Magic Dance. I'd also like to mention Nick's sound engineer, who was an absolute sweetheart, a lovely man, very helpful and very easy to work with. Thanks both of you for helping to make my 30th a big success... the guests are all raving about you on Facebook this morning! :-)
