Being of many or various colors. |
This newly formed, but extremely experienced, pop/rock trio lives up to their name. Not only have the members come from diverse and colorful musical backgrounds ranging from the Mountains of Virginia to the streets of Philadelphia & Baltimore, but they know how to produce a colorful array of sound on the stage as well.
PolyChrome has an original 14-song CD entitled “New and Renewed: The Copper Anniversary Edition” that is as diverse as the artists they cover onstage. The songs are a blend of everything the band has grown up around over the past two decades, which has allowed the members of PolyChrome to share the stage with such a wide range of artists as: Great White, Quiet Riot, and L.A. Guns, to Coal Chamber, to Bowling for Soup and now opening for Sister Hazel. A highly entertaining stage presence, complete with self-ridiculing humor, and both individual and crowd participation, will no doubt have you asking yourself, “Why haven’t I heard of these guys before?”.

Also Featuring:
The Band Perry
The Band Perry, comprised of siblings Kimberly, Reid and Neil Perry, were born in Alabama, and later moved to Greeneville, TN. The trio owes its unique sound to its parents. “Most dads would be rocking their kids to sleep singing ‘Rock-a-bye Baby,’ ” Kimberly says. “Our dad was singing us Rolling Stones songs, and our mom loves country. They definitely cross-pollinated our musical palette…”
The three grew up playing gigs in Mobile, AL., during that time they made connections with Garth Brooks' manager in 2008. Following their encounter, the trio spent time writing and recording music in Nashville where they were soon discovered by label executives. In 2009, the group signed with Republic Nashville and released their first single, "Hip to My Heart" which is currently climbing the Billboard Country charts. |

1964 The Tribute is one of the hardest
working band in the world - bringing
alive the magic of an era and generation. But more than a glimpse
into the
past their show delivers this unforgettable music with a humor
and style
that ensures new generations of Beatle's fans will carry on
the legacy.
Back for the 17th consecutive year to Festival in the Park
- the members of
1964 The Tribute love performing in Roanoke and we certainly
love hosting
them. Be sure to bring the entire family, even the grandparents,
to
experience and relive the magic! |
"2,964 shows and 24 years
later, still hands down the best Beatles Show out
there today.
'1964' The Tribute creates magic!"
– Dick Clark
Number One Beatles Tribute
Show on Earth!"
– Rolling Stone
Also Featuring:
