"PETTY" a solo tribute featuring Frank Murray |
"PETTY" showcases the talented and captivating guitarist/vocalist, Frank Murray, who has rapidly developed a reputation as “The Premier Tom Petty Tribute Act” and fronts the popular full production Tom Petty Tribute Band, “PETTY FEVER”.
Murray is a well respected veteran musician originally from Portland, Oregon and has performed with many well known bands throughout the Pacific Northwest over the past few decades. He has an uncanny visual, musical and vocal similarity to Tom Petty and many times after a performance will have to explain to members of the crowd that he is not Tom Petty. He presents an intimate yet energizing Solo Tribute to Tom Petty, performing acoustic renditions of many great Tom Petty hits while mixing in a handful of higher energy electric versions throughout the performance. |

Stevi Marie and Jackson Road |
| "Stevi Marie & Jackson Road" is an amalgam of contemporary and classic country, rock, and pop influences. With strong musicianship the group focuses on making an electric performance each and every time. From her humble beginnings in a small logging community, Stevi has risen to become one of the Northwest's most active performers. The music in Stevi's Own Words: "I've always loved listening to country singers like Emmylou Harris, The Judds, and Rosanne Cash. But my Dad raised me on the Rolling Stones and Led Zeppelin. Along the way, Louis Armstrong caught my attention; somewhere in the middle, I suppose, is what I do." All in all, the group does their best to elevate the art of live music, all while ensuring that a good time will be had by all. |

Mike Branch Band |
Quote: “I’ve been playing guitar for 40 years and I can still make one sound just as bad as another” Truthfully, the straits might not be quite that dire. Thankfully.
Mike cites the following 3 main influences (out of a host of influences) as having the most impact on his playing style: Rick Nielsen of Cheap Trick. Jim Mesi of local legend fame. Billy F. Gibbons of ZZ Top.
As a diehard Les Paul & Marshall Amplification guy, BOMBASTIC would best describe Mike’s style. |
