About The Musicians
Formed a decade ago, Abbey Road has quickly established themselves as a premier Beatles tribute band. The quartet consists of Nate Bott (John), Chris Paul Overall (Paul), Doug Couture (George), and Axel Clarke as Ringo. Complete with vintage instruments, tailored costumes, and tight harmonies, Abbey Road totally embody the Fab Four, making certain to use British accents and humorous quotes Lennon was known to interject between numbers, and “McCartney” (Overall) playing guitar left-handed.
Los Angeles native Scot Bruce has an uncanny resemblance to a young Elvis Presley, and is ideal to represent The King during his 1950’s and 60’s heyday. Bruce brings three of the most important elements to an Elvis tribute show: a dynamic voice, the ability to rock the guitar, and most importantly, the “Elvis Pelvis,” aka Elvis’ signature hip-shaking action. With Travis Daggert on electric guitar, Russell Scott on upright bass, and Shawn Nourse on drums, the showdown recalls Elvis’ early days recording at Sun Records.
