Wearing sequined shirts and playing an ovation guitar with stage production of lights and smoke and a real big sound, Johnny and his band of guitarist and drummer give a sound which is unmistakably:

The Johnny Gray Experience & The Legends of Rock & Roll

Johnny tours the Northern Territory and North Western Queensland twice a year with his The Johnny Gray Experience and The Legends of Rock & Roll shows, and the audiences can't get enough of Johnny!

 

Johnny Gray is one of the most enduring and best known singers to come out of Brisbane.

Starting in the early sixties he formed a band, "The Fabulous Flamingoes", which became Queensland's top band. Johnny and the band went on to win "Hoadley's Battle of the Sounds" in 1967 securing themselves a place in the finals in Melbourne. Johnny Gray and the Flamingoes won third place winning a recording contract and later went on tour.

After seeing Neil Diamond perform in Brisbane at Festival Hall in the 70's, Johnny began thinking of putting a Neil Diamond concept show together. Johnny was so impressed with Neil Diamond that he incorporated most of Diamond's songs to the band's repertoire immediately. Over the years Johnny had been singing the repertoire so well that he even began to perform the part, with the feel and almost identical vocal sound of Neil Diamond.

A regular concept show was hard to keep together with the intransient nature of backing musicians and Johnny was let down regularly.

However, in the 80's music technology presented Johnny with a consistency of sound with midi, and finally Johnny was able to realise his dream of doing his show right.

Johnny Gray has since taken his Neil Diamond Concept Show to most parts of Queensland, as well as performing regularly as a soloist, and with his duet, trio and full band. His show is ideal for hotels and clubs as well as corporate and private functions.

Johnny recently took his Neil Diamond Concept Show on tour of western Queensland and Northern Territory, wowing audiences wherever he performed.
