During the late 60’s and 70’s, The
Kritters were a very successful
rock band. This hop band played
for the radio station WLS, and
performed with the disc jockeys
at dances and concerts. In the
past, they were also the opening
act for the Moody Blues, Kinks,
Eric Burton & the Animals, etc.
They recreate songs from the 60’s
& 70’s and they play them the
way they originally sounded.
Everyone LOVES the StingRays Rock &
Roll, from Rockabilly – tons of Six-
ties – to the 70’s. Their music, great
rapport with audiences and look
& moves, have made them festival
favorites throughout the Midwest –
filling dance floors (and lawns) the
entire night. They’re passionate about
Rock & Roll and play it authentically.
Excellent musicians and popular with
crowds, they’ve opened for some of
the greatest names in Rock & Roll.
Do you love The Beatles AND
the 60’s? Then you don’t want to
miss this concert. The Beatnix,
the #1 rated Beatles & 60’s Rock
‘n Roll Tribute band will have you
up and dancing and singing along
to some of the most popular hits
and others that you may have
forgotten about.
