REVIEWS:
“Dewey did an amazing job capturing the essence and originality of Holly, not to mention his own musical and vocal talent”
- Lauren Hartranft, Phindie
“John Dewey’s magnetism is off the charts in the title role. He sounds, looks, and acts like the late great Mr. Holly, while still showcasing his own incredible musical talent”
- Rachel Beecher, DC Metro Arts
“Could there be a better Buddy Holly than John Dewey?... The passion of a bespectacled young man in his teens and early twenties, whose youth refuses to believe in boundaries, is perfectly exemplified by the beautifully authentic performance of Dewey”
- John Dwyer, New Hope Free Press
“John Dewey has the looks, the moves and the voice as Buddy Holly”
- Paul Willistein, Bethlehem Press
