ABOUT
Few bands boast a catalog of tunes as extensive or eclectic as Nashville�s Premier Cover Band, Two-Bit Eddie. This Music City 5-piece originally focused solely on interpreting the blues before broadening their horizons to include various styles of rock, soul, blues and a little C&W from the 50�s, 60�s & 70�s.
The sheer variety of music the band can create not only guarantees the audience�s entertainment, but also testifies to the outfit�s undeniable instrumental and vocal talent. Exemplifying both quality and quantity, a typical Two-Bit Eddie performance shifts seamlessly from Motown to Stax and across the pond to England before diving deep into the waters of the Mississippi Delta and surfacing with blues rifts grimy enough to grow algae as they channel a plethora of rock icons recreating the glory that remains The Beatles, The Rolling Stones, Elvis Presley, Van Morrison, Chuck Berry and so many more.
More than simply a band, Two-Bit Eddie is an endless jukebox of flesh and bone, a timeline of popular music that cranks out tunes from decades� worth of artists with unrelenting fervor. Modern musicians recreating the best music from the most creative and memorable musical era of the past century, Two-Bit Eddie peel away the layers of time and reintroduces audiences to the music that laid the foundation for everything current. This unique band proudly injects old classics with new energy and fulfills their motto � �All Killer, No Filler�!
