2009 Winners! - The Refugees

The music of Tom Petty has sold millions of records - his concerts still sell out arenas all
over the country and his hit songs continue to generate extensive radio airplay. While Petty
is not on tour, The Refugees bring his music to fans all over the Bay Area, covering virtually
every popular song of his 30+ year career. Petty fans young and old are excited to see their
favorite music brought to local venues, and it’s not uncommon to see the crowd singing
along with almost every song.

The Refugees have been amazing California crowds since 2007 by bringing the
music of Tom Petty & the Heartbreakers to local stages with a stunning level of
realism, flawlessly recreating everything from the signature guitar solos to the
subtle phrasing and vocal harmonies. Their extensive song catalog includes
all of Petty's hits with the Heartbreakers as well as his solo work and other side
projects like The Traveling Wilburys and Mudcrutch. The Refugees’ experience
and attention to detail, along with a collection of top of the line vintage gear,
allows them to create a live sound that will make you think you're listening to
the Heartbreakers themselves!
“They ROCKED! The entire crowd loved the music, the guys continued
to play way past the agreed upon time, and brought down the house!”
Normajean Hickok, Relay For Life Entertainment Chair
“Probably the best tribute band to grace our stage - we can’t wait to have
them back!”
Valerie Hopkins, Los Gatos Music & Arts
