I remember when Nick won American Idol. I was pleasantly surprised when I saw he was starring in "A Beautiful Noise" in San Francisco. It was excellent show and a fantastic performance by Nick. I highly recommend you go see it, especially if you're a Neil Diamond fan.

Close my eyes I would think it was ND singing! You are truly talented man. We saw you on Broadway and your performance was phenomenal!

[Hansprivate]

This guy performs 8 shows per week and does such an amazing job! Kudos to him!

I witnessed the incredible talent of this man last night at the Neil Diamond play wow

[kitahh]

Nick has nailed this one. My favorite Neil Diamond song and this cover takes it to a different level. What an amazing voice and treatment. Wow.

[djc]

That intro is incredible! Another effortless performance!

My husband and I went to see this show on Sunday 2/11/24. IT WAS MAGICAL and FRANK FRADIANI is an AMAZING TALENT!! LOVED EVERY MOMENT! Sounds just like Neil Diamond!

[Amanda-exxw]

Just saw Nick for first time ever on American idol and had to look him up. What an absolutely amazing voice. Like beyond good. Beautiful man

[GameOver-eiui]

Wow, you really nailed it! My jaw dropped on the first note!

[andreac.]

Wow, just wow! What an excellent rendition of my favorite ND song. We saw Nick perform in "A Beautiful Noise" at the Schuster Center in Dayton, Ohio a few weeks ago, and he was absolutely fantastic.

Please do more of his songs, you do them so well!

Attended last night’s show (Aug 9 2023) and … WOW!! @nickfradiani, you were truly magnificent! Your performance of Solitary Man is brilliant; I felt that one deep in my core. You and Mark Jacoby singing I Am, I Said (my all-time favorite ND song) had me weeping (okay, okay, I was ugly-crying!). I cannot find words to adequately describe how supremely you perform Neil-Then. Neil Diamond is an integral piece of my music foundation (thx mom & dad!), and your stellar performance not only does him justice, but is also a perfect, respectful emulation. Yet, when you took your bow, what came through was humility and your admiration for him. Bravo! Broadway suits you!

[janbow]

Wow this man is so very good and he sounds so much like Neil Diamond, thank you. ❤

[chicoc]

WOW! An Out of this world Sound alike, Neil Diamond must be proud of you Nick, fantastic rendition of Solitary Man, Love it!

[richardanson]

Superb Nick, saw you on Broadway last December and now wish you the best of luck with the lead! Slip the minor key into the intro to Solitary Man and you have nailed it completely.

Attended a matinee last week. You were phenomenal! Couldn’t hold back the tears at the end. I’ve loved Neil Diamond since I was 9 and all I asked for that Xmas was the Beautiful Noise LP. My Dad got it for me and it’s still in my record collection. ND is a national treasure. 🫶🏻❤️

Artistry, Study and dedication culminate in a great talent. Amazing.

[chriscavanagh]

This people is talent! Love the arrangement- Eric that draw on the electric is silk.

[colettebradford]

You give me chills, yes you can pull off singing Neil's songs, you pass in my book with flying colors. Not many can sing a Neil song without trashing it, ❤️❤️❤️ keep singing .
