Reginald Kenneth Dwight (25 March 1947 - present)
Member Of: Bluesology (1962 - 1967)
Vocal Range: E2 - D6
{Vocal Summary}One of the most successful pop stars of all-time, much of Elton John's fame can be chalked up to his flamboyant stage presence and ever-controversial personality. It is easy to lose sight of Elton's singing ability in all of the clutter, but his voice has always been a crucial part of his image. Drawing heavy inspiration from Aretha Franklin and other soul divas of the era, Elton's singing has always been expressive and powerful, coming from a place of genuine emotion. That character has remained consistent in his singing for over 50 years, despite his voice having changed numerous times and gradually taken on a darker color and timbre.
