Our featured band:
“You guys are nothin’ but fun”
-DAVID LETTERMAN
“What a band! What a setlist!”
-BETTE SUSSMAN (former musical director for Bette Midler)
“To simply ‘cover’ a song is one thing. But to communicate it’s magic – to capture its essence and then sustain that magic and mystery with such chemistry and proficiency and warmth and good nature and musicality and musicianship – well, that’s quite another.”
-LEO SACKS (Grammy-winning record producer)
The Truants give you the authentic look and sound of the 1960s…
with our instruments: Epiphone Casino; Rickenbacker 12-string; Hofner bass; Farfisa organ with Leslie cabinet; vintage Hohner harmonicas. Five vocalists complete the sound with no overdubs, sampling or digital nonsense.
