Paul Hopkins as Roy Orbison and Gene Pitney

PAUL HOPKINS has been a professional singer/vocal impressionist since 1982. The first ten years were spent learning his trade as lead vocalist and front man in the showband “Kool Decision.”

Three UK and two Spanish summer seasons, one years touring of Scandinavia, three years resident in the Middle East and several cruises was just some of the work completed by this busy cabaret band.

Embarking on a solo career in 1992, Paul quickly established himself as a formidable entertainer. His unique vocal range enabled him to perform anything from pop and theatre standards to light opera.

This rare versatility made Paul an extremely popular stage performer and much sought after entertainer. It was during these times it came to light his uncanny likeness to the late Roy Orbison and Gene Pitney. People were approaching Paul to comment on his exceptional vocals and his breath-taking similarity to “The Big O” and “Rockville Rocket”. This is how the amazing tribute shows were born.

Paul has spent years perfecting the voice that has now established him as one of the worlds premier impersonators.

He has performed worldwide with his tribute shows, in theatres, at corporate events, on prestigious cruise liners like the Queen Mary 2 and has appeared on BBC television and radio, all due to his remarkable talent.

More recently Paul has been enjoying great success touring the UK theatres with a very popular tribute show, where he stars as Roy Orbison next to an Elvis Presley tribute. However such has been the demand for his personal talent, and unique part in this show he now works more extensively on his own, and “Todays Teardrops” allows the audience to fully experience the true talent of this one man for the whole evening.
