----------------------------------------------------------------
The Four Horsemen:
Dedication to excellence is what separates U.S. metal heroes THE FOUR HORSEMEN from the ocean of 'tribute' bands in existence today. The only Album-Quality Metallica tribute band on the planet, they deliver the unforgettable, note-for-note, perfect experience that is guaranteed to surpass even the wildest dreams of Metallica aficionados. The speed, the precision, the signature riffs, and the look - THE FOUR HORSEMEN are the real deal!
They have the talent to deliver the sonic authenticity of the vintage thrash songs with high caliber execution - including the blistering vocals of the albums, like no one else. No gimmicks, just sheer energy, chest-pounding, crowd-pleasing power. The very same intensity that drew millions to Metallica in the 80's.

Wicked Bees:
Rocking the ska in the frozen tundra, the Wicked Bees bring their high energy show to stages across the upper midwest. Blending musical sophistication with high energy 90s rock sensibilities, the Bees win over crowds with their catalogue of hooky original tunes as well as third wave/reggae/pop rock classic covers.
Pleezer:
Pleezer is Earth's Best Weezer tribute — playing all the big hits and deep cuts from a catalog that spans 3 decades! Whether it was you or your parents who fell in love with Weezer in 1994, you'll have a blast singing along with the rock anthems that have made Weezer one of the most popular bands on the planet.
KoBb:
KoBb is a group of five musicians well known in the midwest music scene that all shared a common passion for the music of Korn.
Formed in December of 2021 KoBb started the process of creating a live show that not only was as sonically accurate to Korn as possible but also visually and right down to the subtle nuances of Korns stage show.
With the first KoBb show in March of 2021 being a huge success they knew they needed to bring this to the masses of Korn fans that don't always have the availability or means to attend a Korn show.
Since that first show KoBb have played both local and regional venues as well as sharing the stage with such national acts as Pop Evil, Powerman 5000, Adema, L.A. Guns and Any Given Sin.
