Local blues rock powerhouse Mercury Trio has been know to morph into many different classic rock bands, including Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers and Led Zeppelin, and this time they’re taking on The Jimi Hendrix Experience! Joined by an all star group of some of the best local “gunslinger” guitarists, they’ll take you on a journey through Jimi’s tragically short career, playing a ton of his greatest tracks, just a week before what would have been his 75th birthday! Are you Experienced? For $6, you CAN.

Despite the devastating loss of this great American Rock Icon, our annual birthday party for Tom Petty will carry on. For years we have celebrated just a single trip around the sun for Mr. Petty. This year, we look back in remembrance of all 66. It’s ALL PETTY, ALL NIGHT on Friday, October 20 at Rose Music Hall as Tanner Lee Band, Rose Ridge, Big Medicine, and Vintage Pistol perform songs from all across the catalog of this Rock Legend.

Thunderstruck: America’s AC/DC Tribute

Recreating the “Thunder From Down Under” throughout the Midwest, south, and northeast United States, Thunderstruck is constantly adding new cities and aims to please every crowd – playing the songs you know and love from all eras of AC/DC.

Dave Moody screeches out the ball breaking vocals of Bon Scott and Brian Johnson, covering all the hits and deep cuts from 1975’s “High Voltage” to 2014’s “Rock or Bust.”

Caleb White brings the sound and image of Angus Young to the stage, complete with a school boy uniform and Gibson SG.

The rhythm section of the band is comprised of drummer Justin Manley, bassist Chris Jones, and rhythm guitarist Kevin Feller, who keeps the music rocking and solid with smooth precision.

Striving to stay true to the AC/DC way, Thunderstruck obsesses over the tones and structures of each song’s studio and live versions, also using all the gear necessary to bring the power and entertainment of a genuine AC/DC show.
