Country Legends Tribute is an awesome musical experience performed by Tim Castle and Dale Sellers, taking you back to when country music was still country music. You will hear songs by artists such as Waylon Jennings, Johnny Cash, Conway Twitty, George Jones, Hank Williams, Johnny Paycheck, Merle Haggard, and the list goes on… Tim’s powerful voice will imitate these great artists to the fullest, as he sings hit after hit, taking you back in time to when life was much easier. Dale Sellers is a legend himself, being credited with playing lead guitar on 1000’s of original recordings which will be performed during this Country Legends Tribute, along with being a 13 year cast member on HEE HAW, the 1970’s sitcom we all loved to watch. Dale will play lead guitar exactly as it was heard on the original albums. He also tends to engage in a few stories of recording sessions, and time spent on the road with various legends when he was not being consumed in the studio recording new albums.

HISTORY
The band originally formed back in 1967 (that’s right!) and played regularly throughout Northern Illinois until 1973. Though they never broke up, life (college, marriage, family, etc.) “interrupted”. After a 38 year “break”, some of the original members of the band re-formed in 2011 for a one night “reunion” performance. It was such a blast they decided to keep it going. Joining original members Frank Kerzich (Bass Guitar) and John “Monk” Montgomery (Lead Vocals and Drums) are John Williams (Lead Guitar), Hans Stucki (Keyboards, Guitar and Vocals), Shelley Myers, and Lindasue Saballus (Vocals, Percussion).

Returning for another great show!!
Twist & Shout is a “soundalike” Beatles Tribute band. We don’t do the phony British accents or “wear hair.” Instead, we use authentic Rickenbacker, Gretsch and Hofner guitars and VOX amps, along with Ludwig drums, and focus on the tight harmonies that made the Beatles music so great. We’ll also tell you lots of insights to the Beatles and their recordings, along with great trivia, during a show. Keyboardist Bob Dobro adds all the many sounds the Beatles came up with in the studio, so we can do the entire Beatles catalog, many of which never were performed on stage.
The group was founded in 2000 and is based in Chicago, where they have performed at area clubs, concert series, and summerfests as well as venues like Navy Pier, White Sox Park, SoxFest.
Trevor Baxter will show us the moves to make on the floor.
