Band, Performers, Technicians:   

Steve Waddington reserves the right, at his own discretion, to employ any and all musicians, singers, performers or technical support as necessary to perform his show. In most cases, the musicians/performers mentioned in this web site are the "usual suspects" and are the first-call artists employed by Steve for most of his shows. However, all of the artists Steve works with are also in high-demand by some of the biggest names in the entertainment business, such is the caliber of talent he employs. If one of the usual musicians is booked elsewhere, Steve has a pool of talent from which he can draw, and they are more than equal to the task. And they all have worked with Steve enough times to have their parts, and the overall pacing of the show, locked-in, ensuring a great show, every time!   

"Cashin' In", "The Feel of Neil", "From Rat Pack To Rock & Roll", "The Retro-Rockers", "The Retro-Rockin' All-Stars", "The Rat Pack Rockers" "For The Love of Dino", "Johnny Rivers A-Go-Go", "The Sons of Sun" and all of the tribute shows and sub-sets therein are Steve Waddington creations and productions for which he reserves the sole right to produce as he sees fit.
