About this Event

Reproducing the sound of ELO is a tough task. Just ask any musician.

This band has the goods.

Dennis Schocket's voice (guitars and lead vocals) is directly influenced by Jeff Lynne. "I think Jeff is quite possibly the greatest, most underrated pop vocalist ever." Gregg Simmons (lead guitar and lead vocals) is known for his great fret work but it's his incredible falsetto that gets him noticed here. Gregg says "You can't make ELO music without the high notes!" He's right of course. Veteran keyboardist, John Kelly (keys, guitar, and vocals) takes on the multiple roles of piano and strings with effortless grace and skill. John says "This music is just so beautifully crafted." Violinist Greta Thomas brings her classically trained excellence to every song. Multi-instrumentalist Bronson Wagner (bass, keys, and lead vocals) has the difficult task of reproducing that epic ELO bass rumble but does so with a style and flair that would make Kelly Groucutt smile. Anchoring all this is drummer Phil Brotman, doing his best Bev Bevan impersonation. "I love this music. Especially the Wilburys stuff. It's just so full of joy."

It's true what they've said about ATOMIC LIGHT ORCHESTRA:

They sound just like the record.

ALO: Atomic Light Orchestra pays tribute to the music of ELO and The Traveling Wilburys with faithful, near record-like versions of all your favorite songs. Of course all the hits are here but so are the deep album tracks that you'll remember. You'll feel like you're back in your bedroom at your parent's house on the street where you grew up! Guaranteed to have you dancing and singing along, all night long.
