Dominic Holmes

Description

Dominic is an experienced singer and guitarist. With over 400 songs in his repertoire he performs to the highest quality backing tracks, songs from the 50s right up to the current day. Dominic also offers a Neil Diamond tribute show and has been told by serious Neil fans that his voice is exactly like Neil’s! For those looking for something more recent he also does a fantastic Michael Bublé show, performing many of his most popular hits, wearing a suit to look the part and again using only the highest quality tracks. These shows, whether cabaret or tribute are always well received and ofte ... n getting the highest praise from very happy customers.
Dominic has worked hard training his voice and has taken it further by becoming a professional voice teacher himself. As such Dominic offers voice lessons in person or via Zoom. He has been playing guitar for over fourty five years and so he is more than qualified to impart his knowledge with online or in person guitar lessons.
Whether you need to provide a party in the local pub, or a some dinner music in a restaurant or perhaps a black tie event with dinner music to start followed by some dancing, Dominic can and has done all of these, as well as putting on some memorable tribute shows as either Neil Diamond or Michael Bublé.

Experience

Dominic has played in live bands performing in five star hotels around Hong Kong when he lived there. Also playing bass guitar in pit bands for various theatrical productions. Whilst living in South Africa he was flown on numerous occasions to neighbouring countries to perform for companies such as Momentum and Deloittes. He has a lot of experience providing entertainment at black tie events at prestigious golfing resorts and five star hotels. Whilst living in Cyprus Dominic was regularly hired for weddings, singing often with only an acoustic guitar for the ceremony and then providing dance m ... usic at the party afterwards. From small pub gigs to an arena in north Cyprus playing to an audience of over 2300 people and all venues and occasions in between, there’s little that Dominic hasn’t done. Comfortable in any situation as well as flying to foreign destinations, nothing is impossible! Read More

Physical Characteristics

Meet the Act

So a little about me, Dominic. I was born in Wimbledon and started to learn guitar at age seven, singing along as I learned. I was soon taking my guitar to school, playing and singing in my break times, even singing in the board room, invited by the school principal to entertain the teachers. I was no more than nine at the time. After moving with my family to Hong Kong, as a teenager, I started to play bass in the local big band, and also featured as their resident singer. In Hong Kong I performed all over, in various clubs and bars as well as many of the five-star hotels, with various bands I ... joined including a 60's Rock and Roll band as well as a 70's R&B dance band. I moved to South Africa in the early 90s and eventually started performing as a solo artist, now back on guitar and singing to backing tracks. I also had started teaching singing. In my eighteen years in SA, I performed all over the country, as well as in some of the neighbouring African countries. I left SA in 2010, to join my future wife in North Wales, but only stayed a few years, doing various gigs through some local agents, before we made the move to Cyprus. Here I continued my career as a solo entertainer, singing in bars, restaurants, hotels and golf clubs. I even performed in one of the ampitheatres to an audience of over 2300 people, as the support act to the amazing Queen tribute band known as Killer Queen. Great fun and a wonderful experience! In late 2019, my wife and I moved back to North Wales to be closer to family, where I continue to offer my voice and guitar at performances all around the country. My wife and I live in Bangor now. Between us we have five grown up kids and one grandson. Here I'm able to offer vocal and guitar lessons either in person in my home studio, or online via Zoom, as well as regular public performances, either as a covers artist or as a tribute show. I love travelling to new places and meeting new people, so if you're reading this, come and say hi at my next live performance, we'd love to meet you! Read More
