Tribute Bands to Take Stage at Festival on March 10

Stage performances are set to be a major component of the Royal Palm Art & Music Festival.  Not to be missed is the tribute band showcase set for Saturday, March 10. 

The showcase begins at 3:40pm with Turnstiles – a tribute to The Piano Man himself.  Turnstiles delivers spot on musicianship, great vocals and a high energy recreation of a Billy Joel Show.  The seven musicians re-create Billy’s classic songs in such a faithful way that will certainly move the casual listener as well as the hard core “Joel fan” to their feet and singing along with all the classics.

In addition, the main stage will feature The Marshall Brothers Band (Allman Brother’s Tribute) 5pm, Sigmund Floyd (Pink Floyd Tribute) 7:30pm, and Storm Riders (Doors Tribute) 8:50pm.

The Chamber works with local volunteers to recruit both amateur and professional bands.  “Music provides the energy to any festival – it sets the mood,” said Jaene Miranda, CEO of the Central Palm Beach County Chamber.  “Our musicians will provide jazz, blues, classic rock, and country.”

Bookings for the event bring out some of South Florida’s top bands including a real life ‘Urban Cowgirl’?  J.D. Danner.  A New York girl who likes to rock out southern style. Her sound is where country meets rock. Often described as Roseanne Cash meets Melissa Etheridge and with a coveted status as a regular performer at the famous Bluebird Café in Nashville, J.D. Danner is not just another girl with a guitar.  She is an artist with a mission to change the world through the power of music. 

In addition to the main stage, the festival also includes a community stage which features local performers from area schools, dance studios and after-school programs.
