» Darren Alboni as Mick Hucknall

» Profile

Darren started performing his tribute to Mick Hucknall in 1991 after appearing on, and winning, his heat in Granada Television's "Stars In Their Eyes". Darren's vocal tribute was hailed as "exceptional" and today is often mistaken for the real thing.

For the following two years his band "Wonderland (Simply Red Tribute Band)" performed at every Working Mens' Club in the North East of England, that lead on to touring the country to theme pubs, holiday camps and the cabaret curcuit.

Performing live at many venues across the UK and abroad over the years has given him great experience working with every type of audience. Darren has performed at the Cafe Royale - London for the Arsenal Football Club at their Championship presentation, and also at The Commodore - Nottingham for Nottingham Forest's Premier League Promotion Celebration.

Darren is quoted to be the No.1 Mick Hucknall impersonator by the Simply Red Fan Club.
