Deanne is one of the world’s foremost and best-respected look-alike models / sound-alike singers. Diana Ross is probably one of the most famous female artistes in the world and although the thought of staging her at your venue may seem ‘pie in the sky’, staging the ultimate Diana Ross Look-Alike Tribute may not.

Deanne’s modelling and singing assignments as Diana Ross have taken her to over 40 countries worldwide including: Japan, China, Singapore, Indonesia, Dubai, Abi Dhabi, Bahrain, India, Eygpt, Israel, Russia, South Africa, USA, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, including most European countries, to name a few!

Deanne can stay in character, if required, to mix and mingle with guests after her performance. Deanne also performs with her own backing tracks for either a 20, 30 or 45 minute spot, singing all the major Diana Ross hits from the 60s Supremes classics to the present day hits, such as: Chain Reaction, Love Hangover, Endless Love, When You Tell Me That You Love Me.

Deanne has done backing vocals professionally from the age of 18 at the historic Wembley Stadium for artists such as: Sir Elton John, George Michael, Queen and Mick Hucknall from Simply Red. Deanne has also worked for the real Diana Ross as a stand-in for the Diana Ross International Fan Club, USA, in Germany. Deanne personifies the height of smouldering sophistication that sizzles on stage and off, an experience not to be missed!

A voice steeped in Soul, Blues and RnB, Mike Mayfield is reminiscent of those timeless artists who not only sang, but wrote and played their songs. Effortlessly joining together his outstanding talents as a multi-instrumentalist with his timeless song-writing, results in the collection of songs before you that are honest and real with messages for our time. With themes that range from love, in the song “Shelter in your eyes”, to the loss in “I wanna Believe”, to the need to bring about change in “Change is the only certainty”, and the frustrations held within ambition, in the groove based “Someday”. These songs and the ones he has yet to write, do, and will always connect with people of all ages and from every walk of life.

On stage the multi-instrumentalist turns into the performer, and witnessing a show with the outstanding full band is electrifying, and also gives Mayfield a chance to showcase his consummate abilities to improvise. Hence fully appreciating and experiencing this eclectic but forward looking artist described by the Daily Mail as “the most exciting artist of 2009 and beyond”, can only be done by both listening to the records and seeing the live shows.
