I started a quest to find terrific blues music and incredible musicianship when I was just a little kid. I also have a tremendous appreciation of fine musical instruments and equipment. One of my greatest joys all of my life was sharing my finds with my friends. I'm now publishing my journey. I hope that you come along!

WHOLE LOTTA SHAKIN - DARREN GREEN
Darren first started playing music after hearing Elvis Presley sing on the radio. He enjoyed playing music at his friend’s house, one day he told them they were going to start a band and the music would be rock ‘n ‘roll. (And he was not wrong)......
He tried his skill with the double bass, and also started playing drums in a rockabilly band. In 1992 Darren went back to the keyboards and joined a pop group called ‘Ouch’, they went on to become big in Japan with two no 1 hit singles. In 1996 Darren came home to England where he took up his musical career again playing keyboards in different clubs, with tours and television work., appearances include The Chart show, Pebble Mill, Motor Mouth, Blue Peter, Gimme 5, Get sharp and the Kelly show together with many radio shows. During his career Darren has recorded at many studios including Abbey Road studios. Then in 2000 he went to Tenerife and did some corporate work with the cast of ‘Buddy’.
In 2004 Darren was asked to audition as a pianist for a touring show called 'Rockin On Heaven's Door’ The show called for some pumping piano boogie. Darren got offered the job and because of his blond curly hair and energetic piano style, the manager said that Darren should play Jerry Lee Lewis as a feature in the show. Darren’s first thought was "Goodness Gracious me" . This opened the door to a new world for Darren as one of the top Jerry Lee Lewis Tribute Artists in the world.
In 2010 Darren joined the hit rock 'n' roll show called 'Rock 'n' Roll Paradise’ which he is currently touring with. Darren also does vocals and play’s a very important part for the band too, and has been playing like a wild animal on a piano which bursts into flames during the song Great balls of fire!. Darren has toured in Norway, Germany, Holland, Denmark, Belgium, Tenerife, Spain, The Channel Islands, and Japan and has built up quite a reputation with rock 'n' roll fans all over the globe.
Darren is a world class performer, his tribute to Jerry Lee Lewis is very professional and he puts all his heart and soul into every performance. Whatever the future holds for him, he is a tribute not to be missed!
