Ultimate Elton

» Profile

Ultimate Elton performs solo with backing tracks for a full band sound, or with his five piece band for a fully live sound.

Highlights
* The closest look and sound to the real Elton that you will find
* Extensive repertoire from every period of Eltons career
* Tremendous value for money
* Features some of Sir Eltons actual clothes!
* Ultimate Elton is happy to mingle, pose for photos and answer questions about Sir
Eltons life and music.

Some tribute artists look like their idol, some sound like their idol. Paul Bacon as Elton John does both! Close your eyes and you wont believe your ears, open your eyes and you wont believe them either! You simply wont find a closer tribute to Sir Elton John.

A lifelong Elton John fan, Paul first started singing and performing Eltons songs whilst studying Performing Arts at University in the early 1980s. With an extraordinarily similar singing voice to Sir Eltons, Paul is able to draw on an amazing back catalogue of hits to produce a truly wonderful celebration of Sir Eltons music. Pauls performances also feature some of Sir Eltons actual clothes, bought from his Out the Closet sales.

Elton Johns extraordinary repertoire means that Ultimate Elton can serenade an audience over lunch or dinner with some of the most beautiful ballads every written, including Your Song, Candle in the Wind, Dont Let The Sun Go Down On Me, Sacrifice and Sorry Seems To Be The Hardest Word. He can also change the pace and get people on the dance floor with classics like Crocodile Rock, Im Still Standing; The Bitch is Back and Saturday Nights Alright For Fighting. Ultimate Eltons challenge is often not what to play, but what to leave out!

With Eltons music appealing to all age groups, including the Lion King for the younger audience members, Ultimate Elton is the ideal choice for any family celebration or corporate function.

As well as performing at numerous music venues, restaurants, hotels and corporate events, Ultimate Elton has also performed in front of thousands at the turning on Christmas lights, and will this year be featured on the main stage at Tribfest Europes largest tribute festival, which attracts some 5,000 people.

Sir Elton John now reputedly charges $2 million for a private function. Youll be pleased to hear that Ultimate Elton is not quite so expensive!

Thank you so much for appearing at my golf classic. Knowing Elton John, I was amazed at your performance it really felt as though we were watching the real thing, you were so convincing in every way. All my friends and guests were highly entertained. Your show really finished the night off for us. Congratulations and again many thanks"

"Just wanted to say what a great night we all had at Stoke Park on Thursday night. I thought you were fantastic and loved singing with you. So many people came up to me and said that they loved it. Having sung with the 'Real Elton', I have to say that it doesn't get any closer than your performance! I certainly wouldn't hesitate to recommend you."
- Bobby Davro

We're back from our honeymoon and wanted to say a HUGE thank you for your act on the evening of our wedding. You were brilliant and we have had constant comments from people saying that you were fantastic as Elton, and also a lovely guy as Paul afterwards!! We feel that it really got the party started as people were on the dance floor all night after your act. You really did contribute to making our day perfect and we really appreciate it. Being a massive Elton John fan I do appreciate the quality of your act! Many thanks and kindest regards

I personally cannot thank you enough for coming along to the event that I had organised and lending your support for this great charity. You played a big part in helping me raise 7000 for Children In Need and you were a pleasure to meet All of the feedback that I have had from the staff of the Eden Centre, family and friends that were there on the day was fantastic and that your performance was brilliant So many people have said to me that you would have thought that the real Elton John had come along to the event. You look and sound exactly the same as Elton and would definitely book you again as you are just as entertaining as the real thing but without the tantrums I think that Elton would be very proud to see you doing a tribute to him, as you do it in a very professional and convincing way...

"We booked Paul/Elton for an outdoor gig expecting sunny weather (since it was summer) and it rained more in those 4 hours than the previous month!!Paul /Elton however was a total star, and dealt with all the inevitable challenges that were presented to him such as waterlogged stage and his platform boots getting wedged in the mud. EVERYONE, young and old loved it and some even flashed underwear at him... Brilliant entertainment and excellent value and a party 'must have'. Thanks Paul/Elton."

What a fantastic night - one of the best we've ever had at The Red Lion Knotty Green. We're now going to have 'Ultimate Elton' back again three more times in 2011. Simply brilliant - thank you Paul!
- Bob Massie

What can I say about his Wycombe Town Hall gig last night other than He WAS Sir Elton, playing in a party atmosphere. Brilliant! He will go far. One more thing to do before you die - see the Ultimate Elton!
