SCOT BRUCE - TRIBUTE TO ELVIS
Los Angeles / Palm Springs, California
A Tribute to the King - Starring Scot Bruce
Musician/actor Scot Bruce celebrates what made Elvis not only the King of Rock & Roll... but the King of Cool! See the magic that made a generation swoon in the 1950’s and 60’s, before the white jumpsuit, sunglasses, and the glitter of Vegas.
Along with his rockin’ 4-piece band, Bruce meticulously and respectfully recreates the electrifying musical excitement of Elvis in his prime... right down to the vintage instruments, the hip ‘threads’ and the grease in the hair. From Elvis’ humble beginnings at Sun Records, to the Ed Sullivan show (when America caught its first glimpse of him), through his Hollywood career... and to his black leather-clad, 1968 ‘Comeback’ TV Special.
Bruce has performed in sold-out venues world wide, and has won critical acclaim for his uncanny musical portrayal. This is one show guaranteed to have you All Shook Up!

TOTAL DISTORTION - Social Distortion Tribute
San Diego, California
Total Distortion was formed to pay homage to Social Distortion, one of America's first 1970s punk rock bands. Based in San Diego, Total Distortion was started by Don Vercelli, a singer with a voice that is eerily similar to that of Social D frontman Mike Ness. Backed by his fellow band members Chris Cunningham, Shawn Barry and Greg Grmolyes, Vercelli has led Total Distortion onstage to pay homage to Social D in venues throughout California, Arizona, Nevada and Texas.
THE BOOZE BOMBS
Southern Germany
Their love for early 50's Rock 'n' Roll and Rockabilly brought The Booze Bombs together a couple years back. They are the hottest rockabilly band in the Black Forest region as well as Southern Germany. They really heat up things when they perform their rip roaring Rock 'n' Roll and wild authentic rockabilly sound.
Lucky Steve (guitar/vocals), Frank Martinez (upright bass) and Rockin´Bend(drums) are complete with the charismatic Italian lead singer Annie Leopardo. Her powerful voice will just about blow anyone away. Her vocals reminds on Rockabilly Queens like Patsy Cline and Wanda Jackson. She's a must see for sure.
