Latino Heat

» Profile

With 20 yrs of performance experience within the music business, Andy Wood has become renowned for his vocal ability and showmanship, matched equally by his professionalism.

After an appearance in 1993 on the hit TV series "Stars in Their Eyes", Andy became involved in the newly emerging tribute scene and throughout the last ten years has established himself as one of the leading performers in the UK.

His tribute work has taken him around the globe with contracts in America, South Africa, the Far East, Central Europe and Scandinavia with many TV appearances for ITV (Stars in Their Eyes, The Late Show), Sky TV, Poppelganger and Mnet (South Africa). Andy is also a hit with many corporate clients. He has worked for Virgin, Granada Television, Cisco Systems, Pentax, Yale and many more.

The American singer Michael Bolton provided the basis for Andys first tribute act... an artiste renowned for his exceptional voice and considerable vocal range which Andy recreates immaculately without compromise.

Always wanting to stay in vogue, Andy produced a tribute to the freshly emerging Latino singer, Ricky Martin with "Latino Heat", becoming the first and the most-sought after tribute with agents and bookers in the country.

The most recent tribute show and now the most popular is his tribute to Sir Tom Jones. "Re-creating Toms voice has always been apart of my shows" and five years on is regarded by many as the best tribute in the UK.

An alternative cabaret show is also available, which involves reproducing the voices of some of the worlds biggest recording stars such as Tom Jones, Tina Turner, David Bowie, Macy Gray, Frank Sinatra, Enrique Inglesias and Barry White.

» Testimonials

Andy was absolutely brilliant, amazing, more than we could have hoped for. Please pass on our Thanks to him for standing in at such short notice. We were obviously concerned when the other act let us down, but we needn't have been. My 50th was definitely a night to remember!!!
Best regards

The evening was a complete success and I must say that Andy was outstanding. So many people commented at his likeness and sound. He really was an excellent act. I would also like to say that having dealt with many performers while organising Christmas parties over the last few years I must say that Andy is by far the nicest. He was a true gentleman. Please would you pass this email on to him. Many thanks

Hi there, Thanks for this and sorry for the late reply. Andy was amazing and everyone enjoyed his show. A quality singer. He was professional and timely and set up without any fuss. More than anything he made it through the snow on one of the worst nights in the recent bad weather. I am really sorry that he had a rather sparse audience. On account of the weather half our guests went home early and many did not set out for our evening reception- so instead of 130 he sang to about 50!
