MIDNIGHT LIGHTNING - The pure musical genius of JIMI HENDRIX made him one of the most influential guitarists ever in modern music. Self-taught and left-handed, he perfected the deliberate use of distortion and feedback to complement his natural virtuoso ability while exuding unequaled charisma, raw talent and creativity to deliver some of the most revolutionary music of the 20th Century. Featuring Mike Zyke of The Unknown Soldiers, be sure to come out and take in this timeless music as Midnight Lightning deliver their loving tribute to the anthemic and transcendent Hendrix experience! http://www.myspace.com/67369166

The UNKNOWN SOLDIERS come amazingly close to replicating the music of THE DOORS note for note while capturing their raw energy through each band member's interpretation, combining to deliver a groovy reproduction of a live Doors show that keeps audiences in a head-bobbing, toe-tapping trance. Their singer's Morrison-esque look, vibe and baritone voice combine with swirling organs and deft musicianship 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 mythology. http://www.myspace.com/theunknownsoldiersdoorstribute
