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!
