RICH WILSON -
ENTERTAINER
Rich Wilson
has been a paid professional entertainer since the age of
15.
He began getting fees to sing at community events while
still attending high school. As time
went on, the demand for his performances gave him the
opportunity to share the stages
with some very major acts from around the country.
His unique ability to stand before any sized audience and be
completely relaxed gave the
impression of being a seasoned veteran of the spotlight and
that helped to open even more doors.
Rich now lives in the Southern Tier of the state of New York
with his wife, Amy and their children
and Rich continues to bring his special form of
entertainment to audiences every where.
Rich probably
best known for his remarkable ability to sing Elvis Presley
songs and get people on
their feet with applause. This has always been a strong part
of his performances but not the only thing he does. His
special ability to sing a wide variety of styles of music
allows him to adapt to almost any situation he may come
across. Standards like those sung by Sinatra, Dean Martin,
Tony Bennett, Bobby Darin and more are also the songs that
Rich has mastered over the years.
He tends to almost sound like each artist that originally
did the songs. Country music has been
a major and fun area for Rich to sink his teeth into because
he says his father raised him on the classic country music
of artists like Eddy Arnold and Hank Williams so it is only
natural that Rich can throw himself into
a cowboy hat and take us back to the golden days of the
Grand ol' Opry. Gospel music is also an area that Rich has
done very well at. As a matter of fact, his gospel
recordings are among his
best selling. It is the music of the 50's and the 60's that
Rich does the most and he does them
very well. No matter what performance to take in by Rich
Wilson you are almost certain to experience songs originally
recorded by artists like Fats Domino, Jerry Lee Lewis, Elvis
Presley,
Pat Boone, The Platters and many, Many More!
Recently, Rich
found himself drawn to another form of entertainment and
just as he has done so many times before, he has worked at
it until he is naturally comfortable with it on stage. Rich
is now a certified Stage Hypnotist. This is one of the most
popular forms of entertainment today.
It is enjoyable for both the audience and the volunteers and
because it involves members right
out of the audience it is very interactive. Due to the
popularity of such things as video games and Karaoke, people
are almost conditioned today to be "involved" in almost
everything they see. Hypnosis can be a very personal and
private thing but when it comes to Comedy Stage
Hypnosis...every one is involved and every one shares in the
fun!
