“Eric Jordan Young’s ‘Shakin’ is a one-man-production-show and with Eric, that’s all you need! His energetic performance packs a lot into the show.”

Sandy Zimmerman

Examiner

“With the throbbin’ new Shakin: Classic Vegas Remixed With a Twist, entertainment hurricane Eric Jordan Young—formerly the crooning host of Vegas! The Show—not only bids to be crowned The Happiest Showman on the Strip (his grin could be sold as a nightlight), but bursts into the ranks of Vegas headliners to be reckoned with.”

Steve Bornfeld

Vegas Seven

“Eric Jordan Young has talent that spans all time. His goal today is to both remind and indoctrinate fans of what a multitalented entertainer looks and sounds like onstage.”

John Katsilometes

“Eric Jordan Young is here to kill it. And he’s going big. Sammy Davis Jr. big.”

Mike Weatherford

Las Vegas Review Journal

“During Young's version of "Once in a Lifetime," he established himself as a spontaneous and flamboyant performer, and because of this, all of his performances were absolutely engaging. Young's expression sometimes seemed a little over the top, but in a good way, since his style complimented the musical personalities of the other two singers. In the second half of the concert, Young sang a medley of "Old Black Magic," "Candy Man," and "Birth of the Blues" – three seemingly different songs that were united by his energetic delivery.”

Chelsea Huber

CVNC Online Journal

"...but the Blue Ribbon performance of the evening must go to Young on his rendition of "Mr. Bojangles." Thanks to a haunting arrangement, ideal lighting, perfect choreography, and a right-on costume, Young had his moment in the spotlight and it was all him. Especially poignant was the different character voice he provided the Bojangles character and a goosebump-style whistle to conclude the song.”

Joanne Fox, Sioux City Journal

"Young sings the lyrics to every song with passion. He feels what he sings. You could not help getting misty watching him.”

"Eric Jordan Young's performance with the Buffalo Philharmonic was truly a marvelous experience. On that evening the synthesis of Eric's extraordinary talent and his amazing stage presence captivated the audience as he brought the late, great Sammy Davis, Jr. back to life through his astounding renditions of many of Davis' hits."

"The entire performance from the beginning to the end was phenomenal! My nephew David and I were particularly touched and in awe, when Eric BECAME "Mr. Bojangles"! We watched in awe as the audience of hundreds, exploded, clapping and shouting. We literally turned around to face the audience and we stood there staring at this incredible show of admiration and appreciation for my cousins' God given talent'."
