Tom Sadge (pronounced Tom Sage) has been a full-time entertainer for his entire adult life. As a popular vocal impressionist and DJ, Tom sang the songs of Frank Sinatra, Neil Diamond, Engelbert Humperdinck, Elvis Presley, Tony Bennett, Johnny Cash and many others. However, the last 12 years as a Neil Diamond impersonator and tribute artist have been the most exciting of his career.
Tom's wife and partner, Marion, conceived the idea of a full Neil Diamond impersonation back in 1996. It took the couple over a year of research, costume design, promotional work and rehearsal before Tom and Marion were ready to show the world the fruits of their labor! But since his first appearance as Neil Diamond in the fall of 1997 at the University of Western Ontario, Tom has traveled far and wide
throughout the U.S., Canada and Europe and has appeared at many major arenas and venues.
Tom Sadge's look-a-like and sound-a-like tribute to "The Jazz Singer" is a favorite of the most discriminating Neil Diamond fans. Tom has been a featured entertainer at many top casinos in many cities: Atlantic City, NJ, Laughlin and Las Vegas, NV, and Phoenix-Scottsdale, AZ and many more. He has also entertained at many smaller resorts such as Mount Airy Lodge in the Poconos (mountains) of Pennsylvania, where he appeared early in his career.
Engelbert Humperdinck himself approved of Tom's plans to add a full impersonation of the singing legend to his repertoire.
Tom Sadge has met Neil Diamond on several occasions and has gotten to know some of Neil's longtime band members.
Tom was very honored when, during a 2002 concert in Pennsylvania, Neil leaned over the stage and, pointing to Tom, told the crowd of several thousand "This guy sounds just like
me!"
