Art And Performance Of An Eagles Tribute Band

By Tammie Caldwell


The Eagles are a band beyond definition when it comes to genre. Some music lovers place them in country while others place them in rock. It is interesting to note that there is now more than one eagles tribute band which also seek to fulfill this goal. Though, no matter how hard a cover group may try to recreate this music of the 70s and early 80s, the Eagles will continue to maintain the originality which made the original members famous, first as a band, then solo artists.

Musical likes and dislikes are often quite personal. Each individual must decide for oneself which tribute band is most enjoyable. After which, if a line-up is playing a local venue, the individual will know which line-up might be worth the time spent at the show and the cost of a ticket.

Whether magic, or talent, these groups often have a way of making individuals feeling as if one were at an actual concert by the original band members. Though, different groups have different presentations when it comes to performance. For example, unlike others, Another Tequila Sunrise actually dress, acts and plays as if each were an original member of the Eagles.

Regardless of the reformation of the original band which toured more recently, Hotel California remains one of the most sought after tribute groups of all time. The group produces over 150 shows per year, often in locations like Las Vegas. The group has also been invited to play on a residential basis which can include several performances in the same venue over the course of several weeks, months or years.

When it comes to finding related music on the Eastern seaboard of the United States, Another Tequila Sunrise out of New England is often a good bet for great music. While some feel the sound provided by this group is more authentic, others love the costuming and performance provided during gigs. Another Tequila Sunrise, unlike many others, dress and play as the original members of the group during each show.

Other tribute bands come and go. These two seem to have quite a following and mainstay on the scene which has continued even after the original band rejoined forces. As to whether, or how long these tribute groups will continue remains to be seen.

When looking to relive the past through some great classics, individuals may want to look for these and other cover groups online. For example, if one has a favorite artist of the past, it can be easy to find recordings on websites like the internet archive, or others related to a specific artist or musician. Another good place to look is on sites like Facebook as many musicians, old and new also now host professional pages geared toward fans.

Whether attending shows by Hotel California, or Another Tequila Sunrise, the music played will always remain timeless. For, it is music that can attract multi-cultural and multi-generational audiences world wide. Famous line-ups like the Eagles and others may come and go, though with these cover and tribute groups performing live renditions along with the original recordings, the music will continue to live on forever.
