Don't feel like taking out a small business loan to score a couple of Eagles tickets? Look no further than Midnight Flyer, the Bay Area-based Eagles tribute that has been playing to sold-out crowds everywhere they go. Fronted by the gregarious frontman Matt Owens, Midnight Flyer consists of some of the Bay's best players, including the Schuman Brothers - Adam and John (guitar and drums), AJ Leighton (bass), Keith Roberson (Vox, acoustic guitar), Marcus Cole (guitars, keyboards), and Kevin Kroner (keyboards).
The band kicked off their career in November 2015. A scintillating show at the Town Hall Theater in Lafayette, CA in 2016 really cemented the band and their following. Energized by their performance and the subsequent crowd reaction, the band has been playing ever since to an ever-increasing draw and the ability to provide their audience with an intimate look into the Eagles' catalog.
Relying on the hits but also delving into deeper tracks like the Hotel California epics "Wasted Time" and "Last Resort," Midnight Flyer aims to put a smile on their fans' faces in a celebration of some of America's greatest rock music. Midnight Flyer shows are a party. In addition to classic Eagles, the band delves into Joe Walsh's career in the James Gang with a raucous version of "Rocky Mountain Way" and "Funk #49."
Listen to this band break into the beginning of "Hotel California" on the 12-string guitar, and you will be convinced that you're in the Fabulous Forum in 1979 with all of the tight harmonies and band interaction you would expect from one of the greatest bands of all time. From the high-energy showmanship of Matt Owens to the introspective delivery of Keith Roberson on songs like "Peaceful Easy Feeling," Midnight Flyer's setlist consists of everything you would want to hear.
Book this fun-loving tribute act today for your festival, corporate event, private event, high-end wedding, casino, or theater and let your audience experience that "Peaceful Easy Experience" for themselves.
You've seen tribute bands before in your lifetime. Many leave you feeling the feeling of "that was ok, but…." Not a Midnight Flyer show. This band leaves their audience wanting more and is able to build upon each subsequent show.
That's where Midnight Flyer is unique. This band brings you on a musical journey as if you're witnessing an Eagles simulation with all of the spirit of the music and of that time in 70s American culture.
