We're a Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers tribute band, and there's six of us - singer, keyboard player, two guitarists, bassist, and drummer.

Our biggest lineup was three guitars, steel guitar, harmonica, drums, percussion, saxophone, and trumpet. Sometimes, the steel and trumpet players wouldn't show up. Regardless, that was a really fun band. The set list was all over the map : swing, jazz, funk, blues, rock, and tex-mex. Radar Love was great when the brass guys were there. |
