Joshua Tree is the nation’s premiere tribute to U2.  The Joshua Tree pride themselves with their ability to generate a unique musical experience that does not lend itself to impersonations. Without compromising artistic integrity, the band has gone to great lengths to reproduce the distinct sound of one of the world’s most popular rock bands. Playing each song with the same intensity and emotion, Joshua Tree covers all phases of U2’s music catalog.

 

Sons Of Skynryd is the Northeast’s premiere Lynyrd Skynyrd Tribute Band.  Sons of Skynyrd has been playing venues large and small, all over the northeast United States for over 16 years.  Their show includes all the hits of The Lynyrd Skynyrd Band.  Upon request, they also add in hits by Southern Rock favorites such as Molly Hatchet, Allman Brothers Band, ZZ Top, and Marshall Tucker Band to name a few.  Sons of Skynyrd takes pride in paying tribute to Lynyrd Skynyrd and it shows in each and every performance.  Sons of Skynyrd is a tribute band that takes no prisoners!

 

Autumnfest Entertainment Coordinator Steve Laramee said, “I am very happy with this year’s eclectic mix of wonderful acts.  We always look forward to bringing a combination of fantastic musical, dance and variety acts to the Autumnfest Main Stage.”
