A Tribute To Mick Hucknall by Darren Alboni
Darren started performing his tribute to Mick Hucknall in 1991
after appearing on, and winning, his heat in Granada Television's "Stars In
Their Eyes". Darrens vocal tribute was hailed as "exceptional" and is often
mistaken for the real thing.
For the following two years he toured with his Simply Red tribute band
“Wonderland” and performed at every working mans club in the North East of
England.
That lead on to travelling the country performing at theme pubs, holiday camps
and the cabaret circuit.
Performing live at many venues across the UK and abroad over the years has given
him great experience working with every type of audience.
Darren has performed at the Café Royale - London for the Arsenal Football Club
at their Championship presentation, and also at The Commodore - Nottingham for
Nottingham Forest's Premier League Promotion Celebration.
Darren is quoted to be the NO.1 Mick Hucknall impersonator by the Simply Red Fan
Club.
