Michael John
Billy Joel Tribute Show 

     Michael John, a native of Las Vegas , Nevada , found out early that he had the voice of Billy Joel. Michael has worked hard at perfecting his Billy Joel show and landed a gig playing with the world famous Legends In Concert portraying the famous piano man.

     After his stint with Legends, Michael appeared on national television twice on the FOX network’s “Performing As:” talent show as Billy Joel receiving great reviews for his performances.

     Michael is not just a celebrity look-alike, although he does have the Billy Joel look down. He also can play the piano, sing, and entertain with the same intensity and passion.
 
     He has a long song list, from the familiar, “Only the Good Die Young” and “Piano Man”, to the classic “Angry Young Man” and “Scenes From An Italian Restaurant”.

     Michael also has teamed with Elton John tribute artists Joel Mason and Eric Turner to recreate the Face to Face show. Just like the original tour, each artist performs a solo set with a five or six piece band and then culminates the show with a Face to Face set which features both of them playing together on two pianos, trading off lyrics on each song they perform. The energy is twice the level and with each performer adding funny performance bits, sing-along parts and spontaneous humor. The show has been performed with a band or just the two performers at the pianos.

     Michael loves being able to jump out from the piano during the shows with his band to “reach out and touch” the audience. His performance is a high energy, audience-interactive show where the crowd can be just as much a part of the show as the performers.
From having the audience sing along, to having them participate in fun dances, Michael John's Billy Joel show is a fun, rocking time for everyone!
