Jackson Live

'Jackson Live' is the ultimate tribute to Michael Jackson setting the industry alight and selling out venues wherever they go. Awarded the 'No.1 UK Michael Jackson Tribute Show' at the 2013 UK National Tribute Awards (as voted for by the UK Agents Association) the show has become one of the most in-demand tributes in the country and Europe and is fast becoming THE number one Michael Jackson show to see!

In the past four years Jackson Live has performed in resorts, festivals, hotels and headlined events in countries such as Dubai, India, Crete, Turkey, Spain, Mexico, Egypt and Tenerife as well as Nationwide across the UK. Some of their key performances include headlining The McDowell Signature Indian Derby, 2010 (30,000 in attendance, live national TV coverage on multiple stations), headlining Gay Pride in Sitges, Barcelona, 2011 and set to return in 2014 (20,000 in attendance) and headlining Music On The Moor in Hertfordshire, 2011(15,000 in attendance). Averaging at 165 shows annually, they regularly perform for many leading brands, companies and chains including Butlins, Thompson Sensatori, G Casino, Pontins, Haven and Park Resorts to name but a few. Now with theatre dates set plus more high profile events and entertainment providers keen to work with the show, Jackson Live are establishing themselves as the ultimate Michael Jackson tribute.

Robin pays true homage to the late great King Of Pop. Singing 100% live lead vocal, his voice replicates the distinctive tones of Jackson - you could be forgiven for believing he mimes! His dancing mirrors the legend in every detail, step for step right down to the smallest of mannerisms and his look (created through a two hour process using ONLY theatrical make-up) is the exact image of MJ. He has spent the past 13 years studying Michael Jackson in meticulous detail to produce the closest complete likeness currently performing today.

Robin has been a long time fan and learnt to replicate Michael's abilities through a love of performing. His dedication paid off in a big way when he got to live a dream and performed for Michael Jackson in 2003 at his 45th Birthday show at the Orpheum Theatre in L.A....an honour only a very select few have experienced!

The show features a full production including special effects, screens and a live 3-piece band accompanied by an epic click track. The musicians are of the highest standard and have supported acts such as Beyonce, Katy Perry, The Script and Mamma Mia to name a few. Lead by the show Music Director and lead guitarist Lee Turner, together they have recreated the unmistakeable hits of MJ whilst staying true to the original sound and giving them a fresh feel for the new millennium.

Jackson Live is backed by an amazing all girl dance team known as Hip Hop Pop. The girls, choreographed by Jenny Bater, perform the classic world-famous routines whilst adding a little something extra for the modern age of music. They are simply electrifying!

With wonderful touches of originality, visual extravagance throughout and a set list for all ages, (whether a fan or not) this is truly a show for everyone.

Ladies and gentlemen.......brace yourselves.......IT'S SHOWTIME!!!!

In terms of expectation, the most eagerly anticipated entrance of the night was that of Jackson Live, especially after the big build-up given by compere Des Coleman. One nice touch was the projection of behind the scenes images before he hit the stage, and when he did, there was an explosion on energy, a wall of sound and some very nifty footwork from ‘Jackson’ and his female dancers. I loved his energy, bravado and full-on attitude on stage, and this was an impressive performance from an artist totally committed to the Jackson tribute cause.....his version of Thriller, complete with ghostly girl dancers and featuring squeakily tight choreography, is an impressive show just in itself.
The Stage Newspaper

"Jackson Live" Show is an unbroken musical tradition that passed time and place in the world of Michael Jackson's sound. The whole show creates the feeling of an MJ live concert and is a revival and reincarnation of the music from an all time great artist. Robin transmits this tradition and the dissent of Michael Jackson’s music and personality in a creative, professional and detailed way.
Norbert Sinnhuber, Tour Manger for Michael Jackson's HIStory Tour

His performance was exceptional and I have received exceptional feedback
Helen Saunders, Leeds Rhinos Rugby Stadium

This show is unmissable and I could watch it time and time again as Michael Jackson is brought to life with one of the best tribute acts I have ever seen. Not only is his voice like for like for that of Michael's himself but he has got Michael's manarisms, costumes and dance moves down to a T. This show gets a standing ovation every time and leaves people talking about it for days afterwards as you watch the King of Pop come to life.
