Here is Dean's bio:
HOT AUGUST NIGHT
Starring Dean Colley
Lead singer Dean Colley has been
performing in rock bands since 1982, after leaving the University of Southern
California, where he was studying biology. 15 years of playing in bars and
regional fairs followed playing rock and roll covers with other local musicians.
All the while, people began taking notice of Dean’s ever more prominent
resemblance to Neil Diamond. Soon, audience members were asking Dean if he did
any Neil Diamond songs.
A short time later, a local
businessman asked Dean if he’d like to put together a tribute to Neil Diamond.
Dean accepted the challenge and began studying the songs of the legendary
singer/songwriter. After a trial version of Dean as Neil Diamond in a small
club, he was offered a chance to perform for a community concert put on by a
local Kiwanis club. From there, the show became known as “Hot August Night”,
after the title of Neil Diamond’s live album recorded at the Greek Theater.
Many versions of the band
followed. Players came and went. However, a chance audition for a tribute show
for military personnel in Japan introduced him to a whole new level of players.
These musicians were seasoned professionals and put a whole new spin on Dean’s
presentation. After arriving home after the tour of Japan, Dean convinced the
band to play in Hot August Night. This led to working with better musicians and
an outstanding presentation.
Today, Hot August Night has played
casinos, corporate parties, fairs, and clubs all over the United States, Japan,
Canada, and England.
