SPACE ODDITY, The Quintessential David Bowie Tribute Experience is a live, theatrically staged, elaborately-costumed multi-media spectacle that transports audiences on a musical journey through the constantly metamorphosing career of David Bowie which was notable for constant reinvention and visual presentation in both his music and on stage.
Over the last 20 years, SPACE ODDITY, starring David Brighton, has performed throughout the USA, Canada, Mexico, Australia, Finland, Germany, Estonia, Belgium, France, The Netherlands, Spain, Luxembourg, Switzerland, Portugal, Israel, New Zealand and China and is widely considered to be the world’s premier tribute to David Bowie
SPACE ODDITY – MEET THE BAND
DAVID BRIGHTON
David Brighton is credited as being the world’s best David Bowie impersonator, with credits including performing side by side with David Bowie himself in the TV commercials for Vittel Mineral Water and for Reality – Bowie’s CD.
David began his musical career as a professional guitarist, playing lead guitar with a number of popular recording artists. Quiet Riot’s Kevin Dubrow tapped David to replace the legendary guitarist Randy Rhoads.
Brighton has performed as a resident cast member of the world-famous Legends In Concert – the Las Vegas production show. He was also cast to portray David Bowie in the Warner Brothers feature film, The Watchmen, and has appeared as David Bowie on VH-1 television as well as in international pop star Shakira’s concert video.
David has also enjoyed portraying George Harrison around the world in a number of the leading Beatle tributes including Rain, The Stars of Beatlemania, The Fab Four, 1964, and Classical Mystery Tour, among others.
PAUL NELSON – Lead Guitar /Vocals
Paul brilliantly reproduces some of rock music’s greatest guitar players’ feel & sounds (including Mick Ronson, Robert Fripp and Stevie Ray Vaughn) and the vocal stylings of vocalists as diverse as Freddie Mercury and Mick Jagger.  His original songs have been featured on television and in films, including the Academy Award winning – The Usual Suspects, HBO, Showtime, CBS and ABC. Paul toured with surf legends Jan and Dean.
DANA DECKER – Bass Guitar/Background Vocals
Dana Decker is a highly regarded music professional who has toured with the Pussy Cat Dolls, Toni Basil and Vonda Shepard. In addition to his work as a touring musician, he has worked as an arranger, producer, musical director, recording artist and an instructor. Dana’s uncanny ability to reproduce the otherworldly bass lines in David Bowie’s music makes him the perfect choice for Space Oddity.
MONICA SCHNEIDER – Keyboards/vocals/Percussion
Monica’s vocal skills can be heard of recordings as diverse as The Sweet, Quiet Riot, Survivor, The Who and numerous others. She began performing at the age of eight in musical theater and has toured throughout the US with various theaters/companies. She was a principal vocalist in Jubilee, one of Las Vegas’ longest running shows and has performed as a singing and dancing member of the Satin Dollz and the Jive Aces.
