The Wildflowers
Equipped with decades of experience and a passion for Tom Petty’s magical way with songs, The Wildflowers bring music lovers of all stripes what they adore, the music of Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers.
You will hear the best spot-on, accurate renditions of all of Tom Petty’s hits complete with authentic southern charm.
“What distinguishes this Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers tribute band from all the rest? How about a singer who sounds more like Tom Petty than any of the others? When it comes to replicating one of the most distinguishable voices in rock, geography plays a big part in that. A singer from NY or CA isn’t going to have the same inflections as a singer from Alabama. They just aren’t. The Wildflowers share the same southern heritage with Tom Petty and The Heartbreakers, and it comes across in every show.” —Tracey Tucker, ABC33/40
Meet the band…
The Wildflowers sound just like Tom Petty and The Heartbreakers in their prime, and have the energy and musicianship to bring down the house with every performance. Presenting a stunningly accurate tribute to Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers, The Wildflowers band has successfully toured the country for more than seven years performing at performing arts centers, fairs/festivals, casinos and other major concert venues. This has earned them a glowing reputation as one of the finest tribute bands in the country. Audiences love this band, and this band loves their audiences!

About Queen Nation
There is little doubt among the pure rock community that the legendary band Queen and lead performer Freddie Mercury earn high ranks as one of the most powerful and iconic groups in rock history. Queen, the kings of arena rock, performed to packed stadiums around the globe for over two decades.
Freddie took showmanship by a rock front man to a new untapped level and was undisputed crowned the lord of arena rock. He mesmerized audiences with his charismatic energy and larger than life stage persona. Upon his death in 1991, a huge void was left in the rock concert world, which to this day has not yet been matched.
Queen Nation, a tribute to Queen, was formed in 2004. Queen Nation consists of: Gregory Finsley on vocals & keyboards as Freddie Mercury, Mike McManus on guitar as Brian May, Pete Burke on drums as Roger Taylor, and Parker Combs on bass as John Deacon. The mission of the show is to carry on the musical torch and pay homage to the golden age of vintage Queen concerts.

Wild Child – A Jim Morrison Celebration!
“The best one I’ve heard is Wild Child …” —Robby Krieger, The Doors
“… the way they play the music is uncanny. I saw Wild Child and they know Jim’s moves and raps as well as he did. The drummer did something on “Break on Through” which was so interesting, I stole it back!” — John Densmore, The Doors
“This is as close as you’ll get to the real thing.” — Ray Manzarek, The Doors
Led by Dave Brock, who was chosen by Anna Morrison Graham to play the lead in The Jim Morrison Rock Opera, Wild Child has over 20 solid years of world tour experience. Dave Brock was later chosen by both Robby Krieger and the late Ray Manzarek to perform Jim Morrison’s role on several world tours.
Krieger remarked, “I think when people came to see Ray and I, they want to see us do the Doors music the way it should be done, so why not use a guy who is really an expert? He knows the songs better than we do, really.”
Faithfully re-creating a live Doors Concert on stage, Wild Child tries to mirror the depth, energy and emotion of the Doors concerts as they were live back in the late 1960’s. The Band also utilizes the same musical instruments live as the Doors did over 40 years ago.
What folks are saying...
“Dave Brock comes closest to capturing the look and spirit of Jim Morrison … and the band ain’t bad either.” — Danny Sugarman Co-Author “NO ONE HERE GETS OUT ALIVE”
“From every angle, Dave Brock is Jim Morrison: his looks, his act and most amazing of all is his voice!” —The L.A. Weekly
“These guys are excellent, not a cartoon version of The Doors” —Radio Legend Jim Ladd
“The best one I’ve heard is Wild Child …” —Robby Krieger, The Doors
“… the way they play the music is uncanny. I saw Wild Child and they know Jim’s moves and raps as well as he did. The drummer did something on “Break on Through” which was so interesting, I stole it back!” — John Densmore, The Doors
“This is as close as you’ll get to the real thing.” — Ray Manzarek, The Doors

TRIBUTE
TRIBUTE – A celebration of The Allman Brothers Band is a powerful 8 piece group that faithfully recreates the music of one of the finest bands of all time.
Since its founding in 2013, Atlanta-based TRIBUTE has earned a reputation as the source for the authentic ABB sound around Atlanta and throughout the Southeast. Rigged with vintage equipment, they interpret the Allman catalog in such a way that these songs written in the ‘60s and ‘70s come alive again.
If the band has learned anything from performing these songs, it is the realization that even though The Allman Brothers Band has shut down, their music maintains the same power over people just as it did 45 years ago. It is a phenomenon TRIBUTE gladly verifies every time they hit the stage.
With sold out shows at City Winery, appearances at The Fox Theatre’s 40th Anniversary Block Party, Mable House Barnes Amphitheatre, a NYE show at the Strand Theatre, The Foundry in Athens, legendary shows at Atlanta landmarks Northside Tavern and Smith’s Olde Bar, a huge 4th of July concert in Pigeon Forge, TN, an all night jam at Alabama’s oldest juke-joint and over a hundred other shows, TRIBUTE has amassed a large and loyal following.
