Roy G Hemmings

Both critics and fans agree that Roy G Hemmings is a great showman and dynamic singer. Understood as the longest serving former member of legendary group, The Drifters, Roy had worked alongside founder Johnny Moore for more than 12 years.

He has entertained audiences around the world with his easy, relaxed style and fabulous voice in a career that spans four decades and includes appearances in several Royal Variety shows and two performances at The White House.

As a highly respected artiste and singer he has a distinguished track record of fine stage craft. Roy has enjoyed major success when he signed a recording deal in the mid-seventies with the J.A.L.N. Band, one of the first bands to storm the British charts with the dance record, ‘Disco Music, I Like It’ co-produced by Pete Waterman.

The release of his album in 2017 ‘Philly vs Motown’ includes songs from his stage show and featuring a fine version of ‘The Drifters’ classic, ‘Like Sister and Brother’.

The Dictionary of Soul ® show includes songs by Otis Reading, James Brown, The O-Jays, The Supremes, Temptations, Four Tops and other Soul / Motown greats.

The show also features the Soul Divas The Prim-ettes, adding a stunning dimension of smooth harmonies and slick Motown dance routines. Diana Ross and Mary Wilson were in fact founder members of the Prim-ettes before changing their name to The Supremes. Audiences enjoy all-time greats: Get Ready, Sitting on the Dock of the Bay, Me & Mrs Jones & Under The Boardwalk.
