Not Exactly Dylan

It is difficult to pigeon-hole NOT EXACTLY DYLAN as they are not a Bob Dylan Tribute band as first seems – in fact they play no Bob Dylan music at all. Picture a band that sounds like a mix between The Doors, The Beatles, and old-school Motown. Now picture a second band that sounds like Doo-wop, Question Mark and the Mysterians, the Animals, and Kermit from the Muppet's. Now picture a cover band of the second band mentioned including a front-man that throws out witty one-liners between songs while impersonating Sammy Davis Jr (no really, he does). Now picture a rival cover band of the first cover band that refers to themselves only as a 60’s/70’s/80's tribute band vis-à-vis KLUV’s radio format. Now, put it all together and NOT EXACTLY DYLAN is that tribute band. Bottom-line: serious fun!

Together since 2002, NOT EXACTLY DYLAN has been delighting crowds at private events and clubs with a danceable upbeat and unusual selection of songs people forgot they loved, signature vocal harmonies, and instrumental arrangements played incredibly true to the original sound - even down to using the old-school instruments and equipment of the time for more authenticity. All the musical parts and harmonies stay true to the original recordings as they were heard originally on the radio in the late 60's and early 70's - now 80's hit's too!

NOT EXACTLY DYLAN features music from The Doors, The Beatles, America, The Monkees, The Byrds, Spirit, Deep Purple, Elvis, Bread, Grass Roots, Badfinger, Elton John, Chuck Berry, Tom Petty, The Romantics, Tommy Tutone, The Baby's, The Cars, and many more! Not too hard, not too soft, this music is just right for all occasions and age groups.
