Zachary Stevenson is not just an impersonator� he represents Buddy Holly so perfectly that we are seemingly watching a genuine replica of the nerdy young Texan whose meteoric rise and sudden death have become legendary fodder for all of us rock�n�rollers of a certain age. Stevenson has the guitar licks down to a �t� and his superb vocals make him equally comfortable with the sweet ballads, on-the-edge rock-a-billy songs and everything in between� including Holly�s trademark hiccup and energetic dance moves that often brings the audience to their feet.

Stevenson�s outstanding performance is the second part of the concert after an opening set of equally show-stopping work from Kieran Martin Murphy as JP Richardson (aka The Big Bopper) and Michael Scholar Jr. as Ritchie Valens.

The Buddy Holly Story In Concert - is a tribute the historic 1959 �Winter Dance Party� and their last concert at the Surf Ballroom in Clear Lake, Iowa� after which all three singers were killed in a plane crash.
