Impact Fuel Room and NTL Productions present Lez Zeppelin Friday, February 18th!
FOUNDED IN 2004 BY NEW YORK GUITARIST, STEPH PAYNES, THE ALL-GIRL QUARTET, LEZ ZEPPELIN, HAS SINCE GAINED UNANIMOUS CRITICAL ACCLAIM AS ONE OF THE MOST EXCITING LIVE ACTS AROUND, BECOMING THE FIRST FEMALE ROCK ACT TO PAY HOMAGE TO LED ZEPPELIN AND TO GARNER RAVE REVIEWS ACROSS THE BOARD. LEZ ZEPPELIN STAYS TRUE TO THE MUSICALLY AUDACIOUS SPIRIT OF THE ORIGINAL, DELIVERING THE LEGENDARY ROCK BAND’S BLISTERING ARRANGEMENTS AND MONSTROUS SOUND NOTE-FOR-NOTE AT SOLD-OUT FRENZIED SHOWS AROUND THE WORLD. IN JUNE, 2013, JIMMY PAGE ATTENDED THEIR SHOW IN LONDON AND SAID OF THE GROUP, “THEY PLAYED THE LED ZEPPELIN MUSIC WITH AN EXTRAORDINARY SENSUALITY AND AN ENERGY AND PASSION THAT HIGHLIGHTED THEIR SUPERB MUSICIANSHIP.”
THE THING THAT SETS LEZ ZEPPELIN APART IS THE SEAMLESS AND UNIQUE WAY THEY INJECT THEIR GENDER-BENDING PERFORMANCE INTO THE ORIGINAL MATERIAL. THEY HAVE BEEN FEATURED ON MAJOR TELEVISION INCLUDING THE BBC, CNN, ABC, CBS, MTV, VH-1, FOX AND RADIO SHOWS WORLDWIDE, SUCH AS SIRIUS XM AND NPR. THE GROUP’S FIRST STUDIO ALBUM, LEZ ZEPPELIN, WAS PRODUCED BY LEGENDARY PRODUCER/ENGINEER, EDDIE KRAMER (LED ZEPPELIN, JIMI HENDRIX). THE GROUP’S SECOND LP, LEZ ZEPPELIN I, IS AN AUTHENTIC RE-MAKE OF LED ZEPPELIN’S FIRST ALBUM, USING THE VERY SAME VINTAGE EQUIPMENT EMPLOYED BY LED IN 1968. LEZ ZEPPELIN ALSO RECORDED A HOLIDAY SONG, MYSTIC SNOWMAN, A WRY MASH-UP OF STAIRWAY AND FROSTY THE SNOWMAN. ALL RECORDS ARE DISTRIBUTED THROUGHOUT THE UNITED STATES, JAPAN AND EUROPE.
SINCE LEZ ZEPPELIN’S FORMATION, THE GROUP HAS BROKEN BOTH GLASS AND CLASS CEILINGS. WHETHER IT’S PLAYING ON CATWALK ABOVE TIMES SQUARE FOR 40,000, OR ON THE MAIN STAGE AT BONNAROO, HELLFEST AND THE ISLE OF WIGHT; FLYING TO INDIA FOR A BENEFIT CONCERT FOR AMBULANCES OR TAKING THE STAGE – TWICE! — AT MADISON SQUARE GARDEN, IT’S CLEAR THAT THE UNIQUE POWER, PERSONALITY AND MAGICAL FORCE OF LEZ ZEPPELIN IS FAR BEYOND THAT OF A “TRIBUTE” ACT.
SPIN MAGAZINE CALLED THEM “THE MOST POWERFUL ALL-FEMALE BAND IN ROCK HISTORY.” FOR THOSE SCEPTICS WHO STILL DARE TO ASK: CAN FOUR WOMEN PULL OFF THE EXUBERANT, POWERFUL AND MUSICALLY INTRICATE PERFORMANCES FOR WHICH LED ZEPPELIN ARE KNOWN, A LEZ ZEPPELIN SHOW IS NOTHING SHORT OF A REVELATION.

Impact Fuel Room and NTL Productions present Depeche Mode Tribute – StrangeLove Saturday, April 23rd!
Los Angeles based STRANGELOVE-The Depeche Mode Experience delivers a career spanning, pitch perfect “best of” concert that transports the listener through time and touches on several key points in Depeche Mode’s 40+ year career. Songs from throughout the Depeche canon are lovingly recreated; from favorites on DM’s debut Speak and Spell to the newest fare from ‘Mode’s latest- 2017’s “Spirit”. No detail of STRANGELOVE’s presentation has been overlooked. The visual presentation with stage set pieces and in-show costume changes reflect different eras of Depeche Mode’s story.
Truly evocative of a Depeche Mode arena/stadium stage show; the scale of STRANGELOVE’s theatrical stage production is unparalleled, save for the real article. Custom-produced multimedia projection visuals delight the concertgoer’s senses and enhance the illusion that they’re witnessing an actual Depeche Mode concert.
These accomplished musicians have a reverence and devotion to Depeche Mode’s body of work that’s driven them to recreate every possible detail and bring the “Music To The Masses” in a concert setting that transcends a mere tribute production; and feels more like a shared communal fan-club celebration of halcyon days of new wave/emerging electronica. Accuracy and authenticity is a hallmark of the project, with the band employing as many authentic vintage synthesizers and samplers as possible in recreating the classic and widely varied sounds of Depeche Mode’s discography.
With over 120 million records sold and a rabid international fan base, Depeche Mode’s status as elder statesmen of electronica was recently cemented with their induction into the Rock & Roll Hall Of Fame last year. Their enormous fan base encompasses all ages and crosses every demographic. Their last stadium/arena tour in 2018 set world box office records. STRANGELOVE –The Depeche Mode Experience brings a thoroughly enjoyable and staggeringly authentic DM concert to concertgoers, and connects with international audiences, wherever the group performs.

NIGHTRAIN’S Tribute show to Guns n Roses has been taking the US by storm for years running. Performances have ranged from The House Of Blues, MTVs Famous Club LaVela, The FC Dallas Stadium, to this years Carolina Rebellion, sharing the bill with Alice In Chains, Soundgarden, & Buckcherry to name a few. Nightrain continues to make their stamp in today’s ever growing Tribute Market.
The accurate vocals and hypnotic swaying of Axl both capture the audience’s attention from the first beat down to the last note. Slash’s classic riffs and perfect showmanship (and let’s not forget the top hat) will make everyone do a double take. However, Axl and Slash are only part of the show. The tight rhythm of Izzy, Duff, and Steven are the glue that keeps this true concert tribute together. Izzy’s laid back style…a 6’ blonde Duff…the energy of Steven “popcorn” Adler complete this visually and musically accurate line-up. This band’s vibrant stage presence and accuracy to everything about Guns N’ Roses leaves the entire crowd pleased.
