I AM, HE SAID” –
A Celebration of Neil Diamond-Starring Matt Vee
A Celebration of Neil Diamond - Starring Matt Vee, nephew of 60's Pop-Star Bobby Vee - This 12-piece ensemble will leave you want-ing MORE! All of Neil’s hits done with the utmost authenticity and respect. No glitzy Vegas BS! The show also features many inti-mate moments and stories of Neil’s life, and a very touching nod to their father and Uncle Bobby Vee will leave you breathless!
With songs like Cracklin’ Rosie, Song Sung Blue, and Sweet Caro-line, Neil Diamond sold over 135 million records worldwide, and produced musical hits spanning five decades. A prolific song writ-er in the mid-60s, he penned songs recorded by everyone from Elvis Presley to Deep Purple and, of course, the Monkee’s classic, I’m A Believer. Join Matt, Jeff, and Tommy Vee (nephew and sons respectively of the legendary Bobby Vee), for a celebration of this amazing music icon. After its debut performing to 23,000 fans at JoeTown Rocks in St. Joseph MN, this wonderful show has been making its way to theaters and venues nationwide!
“This is not a tribute show,” says Tommy Vee. “This is a celebra-tion of an amazing music icon; one we all love and respect. We have recruited an incredible group of singers and players and have gone back to the original records,” he explains, “It is all about the vocals and Matt absolutely nails it! It’s a Rockin’ show!”
Joining the Killer Vees band are Tommy’s son Bennett Vee on gui-tar, Matt’s wife Julie Velline on vocals, veteran Minnesota musi-cians Mark Levandowski, Dennis Kennedy and Dr. Frank Plachecki, as well as a very special surprise for the finale!

Biographie de Matt Vee
Nephew of legendary 60s pop-star Bobby Vee, Matt Vee, singer, guitarist, writer and recording artist, along with his cousins Jeff and Tommy Vee (sons of Bobby Vee) and wife Julie Velline tour the country performing as "The Killer Vees," in various musical configurations. Most notably is Matt's production "I Am, He Said"--A Celebration of Neil Diamond, which has played for hundreds of thousands nationwide.
Matt grew up within the legacy of a very musical family. Father Bill Velline and his younger brother Bobby formed “Bobby Vee & The Shadows” as a basement band in 1958. Buddy Holly’s untimely death on February 3, 1959, “The Day The Music Died” would catapult Bobby Vee into the international spotlight in early 1960. Bob Dylan, then known as “Elston Gunnn” briefly performed with Matt’s dad and uncle in those early days and recently quoted on-stage that “Bobby was the most meaningful person I've shared the stage with.”
This legacy has continued on with Matt and Bobby’s sons Jeff and Tommy Vee, and Matt’s wife Julie as “The Killer Vees!” You can catch Matt and the Vee brothers in many different touring acts. Just check the website for a show near you! www.MattVee.com
