Description
For several years Houston has performed in Canada and in Las Vegas and the surrounding area including the main showroom at Harrahs Hotel (now Caesars), Tropicana Hotel and hosted as Jack Nicholson at the MGM Grand. He is regarded as the "Canadian Danny Gans" in the convention and corporate world!
In his unique one-man show he brings to the stage all your favorite actors, comedians, TV personalities, presidents, sportscasters and over 30 singing legends with special tributes to Johnny Cash, Dean Martin, Roy Orbison, Paul Anka, Neil Diamond and Elvis Presley.
His easy-going likeable presence appeals to all age groups customizing and tailoring each show. His uncanny ability to replicate and capture the look, sound and demeanor of each character packing as many as 60 to 100 celebrities into his show. From the moment he takes the stage, audiences are captivated by his charm, talent and ability to re-create the voices and mannerisms of famous stars.
Houston performs with tracks or live band with back-up singers.

Feedback
- Making the arrangements prior to the event went really smoothly. Our correspondance through email was very reassuring & efficient. This was only topped by meeting Houston and having him perform for 215 people at our fundraising dinner for Hospice Georgian Triangle in Collingwood Ontario. The respose to his performance was glowing reports from everyone that attended. I would certainly recommend him to anyone looking for a performer who is talented,knows his audience & followed our request to interact with the guests. He was tops on all accounts!

- Houston along with his sound man Terry were excellent! Prior to the event our contact with Houston's wife Beverley was superb! What a wonderful couple they are! We would most definitely hire them again and highly recommend them to others. Our guests ranged in ages from 15 - 81 and the performance was enjoyed by all. We received rave reviews for such an incredible evening. An A+!!

- Houston is a very talented singing comic impressionist and was well received by his audience. It was great to hear so much laughter and clapping in the room. He is very entertaining and knows his subjects well. -- Sharon C, Sarnia, ON, 5/15/2008
