       zz top tribute     It’s all in the name. ZZ’s Best really is the best tribute act to the legendary band ZZ Top! Having played around the entire country, ZZ’s Best is the tribute that gets return visits to every venue they perform in. Playing all the major hits and then some, ZZ’s Best continually brings their A game! The band originally started out in Florida and the group would play at all the major clubs. They even opened for many notable rock n’ roll acts such as Lynyrd Skynyrd, Styx, Mountain, Edgar Winter, Grand Funk Railroad, Greg Allman and many others. “This band had one heck of an edgy sound” noted Tommy Shaw after seeing them as an opener back in 2005.

After years of doing the normal club scene, Paul Jennings (aka – Rusty Grille) decided to move the band in a new direction. The was when ZZ’s Best was formed. “I love paying tribute to ZZ Top and being a 3-piece power trio, this just seemed perfect for us” says Paul.

Led Zeppelin Tribute Band

           led zeppelin tribute Mothership is the premiere tribute band to the classic rock n’ roll group Led Zeppelin. Known for their captivating live performances, this San Antonio-based band recreates the authentic feel of a Zeppelin concert during the band’s heyday in the mid 70s. Their shows incorporate an elaborate laser light and fog show, complete with Theremin, bow solos, and more. The audience is transported back in time not only visually but aurally as well.

Recreating the soaring vocals of Robert Plant is no easy task but Mothership vocalist Sean Finch takes on the task with ease. Likewise, attempting to fill the shoes of a guitar master like Jimmy Page would be enough to make most guitar players shy away. But guitarist Albert Steves fills the role without complication. Mothership truly follows in Led Zeppelin’s footsteps as they arrange intricate medleys of popular rock anthems into the show, keeping each show fresh, energetic and full of surprises. After breakout performances at the iconic Aztec Theatre in San Antonio and the House of Blues in Houston, this Led Zeppelin tribute band stands poised to take the country and the world by storm.
