One of the
most popular bands on the UK party circuit, Star is an international show band
in the broadest sense of the word. In the last couple of years, they have
cruised across the Atlantic aboard the world famous QE2 and worked in Portugal,
France, Holland, Germany, The United States and The Middle East. The band
performs regularly for the most prestigious events and glittering occasions in
the country’s top venues.
They have entertained members of the Royal Family - including Prince’s William
and Harry - and other European Heads of State, leading politicians and
statesmen. The band also entertained members of "The Royle Family" as they
recently performed at a charity ball, organised by members of the cast of the
BBC TV sit-com. As well as being in great demand for corporate events and
charity balls, Star is one of the most popular bands at weddings, bar-mitzvahs
and other private parties for audiences of all ages.
The band
boasts a state of the art computer controlled ‘intelligent’ lighting set-up,
including (for the technically minded) the latest HPE Mini-Goldscans, a crystal
clear but powerful sound system and a star cloth backdrop. This top grade
equipment complements an ever changing stage show which features choreographed
dance routines and a wide range of superb costumes. The band can dress in ‘black
tie’ for a formal opening set and the next minute appear in the most outrageous
Latin outfits, with colourful suits
and the girls in Carnival costumes, complete with head dresses. Every evening
with Star culminates in a New Year’s Eve style climax, complete with exploding
confetti cannon.
Lead by vocalist/guitarist Nigel Smith, the band plays a wide repertoire of
music featuring classic songs from the past four decades and the best of today’s
chart hits. The current line-up has been together for more than five years and
their experience, musicianship and sheer professionalism have combined to
produce a band which is widely acknowledged as one of the best of it’s kind in
the UK. Star always appears as an eight-piece band featuring two girl
singer/dancers whose lively approach and dynamic vocals enhances their superb
stage show.
