Tina Turner act on hunt for new event promoter
Bosses are looking for a new event promoter who is ‘simply the best’ to organise Tina Turner tribute shows.
The Vintage Corporation has placed an advert in the Kentish Express appealing for a promoter to find venues and book gigs.
The company provides the backing band for performer Julie Nevada, a cabaret singer who is the frontwoman for the Tina Turner Experience.
She has been a solo performer since the age of 15, and has shared the bill with the likes of Jimmy Jones, Les Dennis, Mike Reid and Tom O’Connor.
According to her tour manager Andy Locksley, she remains in constant demand because of her “unmistakeable vocals, energy, personality and sensational image” which she has taken years to study. The Vintage Corporation provides the backing band for performer Julie Nevada, the frontwoman for the Tina Turner Experience, who recreates the legendary singer’s hitlist of songs
The theatre show includes a biopic musical performance where Miss Nevada has learned to impersonate everything from the powerful vocals and dance moves right down to Tina Turner’s facial expressions.
Guests enjoy a full range of Turner’s legendary hits including Simply the Best, Nutbush City Limits, Let’s Stay Together, Proud Mary and Private Dancer.
In the advert it states that “several years of experience in the music or promotion industry is a huge advantage” and adds that an understanding of social media and office software is also required.
Vintage Corporation recruiter Chris Bigault said: “The Tina Turner Experience is extremely popular wherever we go.
“People just go nuts, they dance up the aisles because it’s such a good show.
“There aren’t many gigs left this year, so we’re looking forward to promoting and finding new events next year.
“The promoter will be working for us full-time. We’re looking to arrange a lot more shows, and that will be their main job.”
