The UNKNOWN SOLDIERS - Named after The Doors' most political song, this Doors tribute band comes amazingly close to replicating the music note for note, but more importantly they capture the raw energy through each band member's interpretation, combining to deliver a groovy reproduction of a live Doors show and keeps audiences in a head-bobbing, toe-tapping trance. Although it is hard to replicate the eccentric unpredictability that was Jim Morrison, the lead singer's Morrisonesque look, vibe & baritone voice combine with swirling organ instrumentals and the band's music to captivate and transcend time and place - allowing audiences to be transported back in time to experience a taste of live shows that are now a part of rock music mythology. http://www.theunknownsoldiers.net

TWIST & SHOUT - (formerly The FAKE BEATLES) captures the sights and sounds of the Beatles live throughout their history. Songs range from their early pop music hits to the later psychedelic days, complete with costume changes. Good old fashioned, edgy, in your face Rock 'n' Roll, just like they were live at the Cavern or BBC... don't miss this Fab evening! http://myspace.com/twistandshoutband
