“One of the best tribute bands I have seen. Fabulous evening playing all Billy Joel greats and a few less well known numbers. Very talented musicians. I can’t recommend highly enough. Fabulous entertainment."

“A brilliant show. A brilliant mix of the greats and album tracks. So many great moments in the night, but I was relieved when did 'Scenes from an Italian Restaurant', fearing you were going to skip it as "one of the hits"! Will definitely watch you again. As someone whose seen Billy Joel twice you did him proud.”

“An awesome night! Not only true to the sound of Billy Joel, playing loads of his hits, the whole band are just incredibly talented. Robert is an amazing singer and musician, and he engages the audience really well. Loved it!”

"A fabulous night. The six-piece band skillfully and faithfully delivered Billy Joel's music as it was written. Robert Schmuck has the vocal range and musical talent to carry off the most challenging of the back catalogue (Innocent Man, Prelude/Angry Young Man etc.) and, whether behind the piano or standing at a microphone, totally engaged with the audience (they were dancing in the aisles). Would recommend this as a night out for any fan of Billy Joel's music."

"What a fabulous show! Superb renditions of all the favourites with a couple of lesser known songs to keep it fresh. I haven't seen such a tight band in years. Billy Joel's songbook is amazing and needs brilliant musicians to do it justice. We had six brilliant musicians tonight. Would love to see Piano Man again!"

"I've been lucky enough to see Billy Joel live 5 times, and as a big fan, this show was right up my street. Robert is one amazing singer, and his band are all truly talented. We thank you for giving us the best night. We can't wait to see you again. Next time don't leave it too long!"

"I’ve been a Billy Joel fan since the 1970s and I wasn’t sure what to expect from a tribute act but Robert Schmuk is super-talented and he and his excellent band nailed every single song. If you love Billy Joel’s music, you will love every second of this fantastic show."

"Such an AMAZING night out! Great set. Robert is a lead singer with Billy Joel's soul and sound running through his veins. Pure artistry and a backing band with huge talent; really tight with brilliant vocals. Perfect! Perfect! We feel really priviledged to have been there!"

"You know what it’s like when you go to see a tribute act! Will they be anything like the performer they’re trying to portray? Will your heart sink at the start of the first song? Well, you needn’t worry with this act! From the moment he set foot on stage, in Cheltenham Town Hall, Robert Schmuck had the audience in the palm of his hand. Backed by an amazing set of musicians, who complimented his voice and incredible piano skills, Robert had the place rocking for over two hours. Is he Billy Joel? No, but he gives his “idol” the greatest tribute. After the first couple of songs, for me, “Billy” was right there in Cheltenham belting out his greatest hits, and I couldn’t tell the difference!"

"I've been a huge Billy Joel fan since the 1970s and have seen him in concert umpteen times. His shows are always absolutely fantastic. So I was a bit hesitant about going to see this tribute act. But I needn't have worried. It was great. We heard a fantastic band and a consummate lead perform a fabulous range of Billy's songs from old to new, intense ballads, slick harmonies, to full on rock without missing a beat. A great night was had by all. I thoroughly recommend the show to every BJ fan out there and hope it goes from strength to strength. I'll certainly be booking to return when it comes my way again"

"What a great night! Talented musicians, brilliant atmosphere, and a good mix of popular and lesser known songs. The way the set ended sent us home completely hyped up. Can't wait for them to return"

"I have seen One Night of Billy Joel twice now, and believe me when I tell you, I’ll be returning for a third. There are no gimmicks or time wasted, just a stage erupting with some of history’s best music, and an audience raring to go. Every member of the team, from the saxophonist to the drummer to those multi tasking with instruments and backing vocals, all incredibly talented. However, I’d be amiss if I failed to mention the singer and pianist himself, the young spry heartthrob of middle aged women everywhere. He could be the second coming of Billy Joel, he is that good. "
