“HEATWAVE” is a musical tribute to multi-platinum and Rock and Roll Hall of Fame member, Linda Ronstadt. Linda Ronstadt was the top grossing female artist of the 1970’s and is considered the number one female artist of that decade. Her achievements include 19 gold, 14 platinum, and 7 multi-platinum albums, as well as 11 Grammy awards, three American Music awards, two Academy of Country Music Awards, and one Emmy. “Heatwave” tribute band features Kim Osborne, a Kansas City native heavily influenced by Linda Ronstadt’s music. Kim has sung for years with many popular area bands. Kim has won a number of singing competitions and has sung on stages across the country from Florida to Las Vegas. She is a huge Linda Ronstadt fan and is thrilled to have the opportunity to cover some of Linda’s most popular material.
“ELTON DAN AND THE ROCKET BAND” is a tribute band to one of the most highly acclaimed and successful solo artists of all time, ELTON JOHN! Over the five decades since his career began in 1969, Elton John has played nearly 4,000 concerts in over 80 countries. He is the third most successful artist in the history of the American charts, behind only Elvis Presley and the Beatles. “Elton Dan and the Rocket Band” puts on a spectacular show Elton John fans won’t want to miss! You will immediately notice the attention to musical detail not only with a full 8 piece band including back up singers, but with over the top costumes and high energy performances like Elton in days past. Get ready for a fun filled show!
