Hailing from the Mississippi Gulf Coast, The Petty Things were formed by a group of seasoned musicians united by a deep respect for the music of Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers. In the wake of Petty’s passing, guitarist Myles Sharp, along with Todd Durbin (guitar), Scott Andersen (drums), Roberto Rodriguez (keyboards), and Seth Morgan (bass), came together to honor his legacy the only way they knew how — live, loud, and with heart. Rather than dressing in costumes or relying on digital enhancements, The Petty Things focus on substance over spectacle. There are no wigs, no backing tracks, no smoke and mirrors — just five musicians playing real instruments through real tube amps, channeling the spirit of Petty’s music with conviction and precision. The Petty Things aim for authenticity in every performance. Their shows are a journey through Petty’s vast catalog, offering beloved hits for the casual fan and deep cuts for the die-hards. Often joined onstage by The Sharp Sisters — providing powerful backing vocals and percussion — the band delivers an immersive, all-live experience that captures the timeless sound and soul of American rock and roll. More than a tribute, The Petty Things are a living celebration of one of rock’s most enduring songwriters, performed with the kind of honesty and reverence that Tom Petty himself would have appreciated.
