Elio Pace & His Band

Elio Pace is a pianist, singer, songwriter, arranger and producer. Oh, and a great showman! Whether appearing at the BBC Proms in the Park, conducting the orchestra on Weekend Wogan or performing at Sandra Bullock’s 30th birthday party, his enthusiasm is infectious.

In 2013 he was invited to the USA to “fill Billy Joel’s shoes”, starring in two special reunion concerts with Joel’s original band.

Following the success of these shows, Elio has decided to bring The Billy Joel Songbook to theatres in the UK. With a great 6-piece band, the hits just keep on coming in this electrifying show. Uptown Girl, Just The Way You Are and My Life as well as fan favourites such as Scenes From An Italian Restaurant, Goodnight Saigon, Piano Man and many more.

In fact there are so many songs that just had to get in the show that the performance is made up of two 75 minute halves, so this is truly a great night out!

“Elio has energy, talent, a voice to die for....and boy can he rock ‘n’ roll!” Bill Kenwright

“Only Sensational” Sir Terry Wogan
