Full Biography
The Best of Elton is an Essex-based professional musician, pianist and composer, who brings Elton John out of retirement with his amazing authentic tribute.
He has been a fan of Elton since knee high and was one of the first tributes to the great pop icon when he started touring with the Rocket Band in the early 2000's. Both with the band and playing solo, he has played at a plethora of events ranging from holiday parks, festivals and theatres to corporate and private events. He has a real flare for the unique vocal style and piano texture of Elton and is able to create great audience reaction and participation. As soon as he steps out on stage in costume, audiences instantly get the feel of Elton’s presence.
All in all, The Best of Elton’s tribute to Elton is a highly authentic, professional and unique experience that will get the audience up dancing and singing along and will give them an experience to remember.
The Best of Elton’s musical career has included working in TV and radio and performing as a classical concert pianist. He has also worked across the UK and internationally in tribute bands as Robin Gibb in the UK Bee Gees and as Benny Andersson in a top ABBA tribute. He has more recently been a member of chart scoring band Peace On Your Plate.
"I’ve followed Elton since the 1970's and seen him in concert twice, once at Caesars Palace in Las Vegas and also at Powderham Castle in Devon where he played over two and a half hours solo. I hope my tribute in whatever way will help keep his great music alive!"

Immaculate, he lifted the room!
Tim B booked The Best of Elton for their event • December 2024
“I saw Ian’s tribute to Elton at Vegan Camp Out in 2024 and went over and immediately booked him for our Xmas Vegan Fayre in London - the perfect ending to a fantastic weekend, Elton V had the crowd singing, dancing and waving along and lifted the room with his immaculate piano playing and renditions of some of Eltons finest. Quality all over from start to finish and a great spectacle to go with the tunes.' ? Tim Barford Founder/Owner Vegfest UK”

A truly sparkling entertainer!
The V booked The Best of Elton for their event • July 2024
“‘Ian’s Elton sparkled with our audience. Approachable, professional - and very nattily dressed! - the crowd loved him. He brought everyone together and left them cheering for more. A true entertainer - and a heck of a nice fella’ The Vegan Queens Mind and Body After Dark Stage (VCO)”

Nick G booked The Best of Elton for their event • June 2024
“I have seen Elton by Ian before and was impressed. This time he played for me and while not only doing a great show he was also a pleasure to work with and I (Black Frog Presents) would recommend him to anyone. He also joined the UK Bee Gees as Robin Gibb and again was fantastic and a total professional.”

Chris C booked The Best of Elton for their event
“'Ian Haywood as Elton John - What a treat! Genuine and as true to the original songs as possible, lots of well known and some older ones, something for all the fans of his music over the decades. A magical memorable performance!'”
