Music at the Zoo: Substitute: Tales From The Who

Substitute

Tales From The Who

Saturday, June 18, 2022 | Doors Open: 5:30PM, Show Starts: 7PM

With a look and sound that captures The Who at the height of their 70s peak, Substitute plays the songs that have become part of rock legend. Meaty, Beaty, Big, and Bouncy may be the best words to describe Substitute: Tales From The Who, a tribute to one of the most pivotal rock bands of any generation. Substitute brings to life the songs that over the past 50 years have become a vibrant part of music history in the form of smash hits, multiple rock operas, and television themes.

Channeling a Rock and Roll Hall of Fame legend that many consider the best live rock band ever, is challenging. A key Summerfest talent buyer who has worked with the band describes Substitute this way: “Having booked the band for 10 years, I consider them to be the best tribute to The Who I have ever seen. Substitute: Tales From The Who is the next best thing to The Who itself, a group of professionals that always delivers live!”

Opening Band:

Grimm Brothers

Saturday, June 18, 2022 | Doors Open: 5:30PM, Show Starts: 6:30PM

As two veteran performer vocalists, the Grimm Brothers light up dance floors and concert stages wherever they appear. They're repeat visitors to venues like Wisconsin State Fair, Summerfest, The Bradley Center and Potowatomi Casino.

Their music and vocal harmonies consist of an audience-pleasing blend of both originals and tributes to some of today's and yesterday's greatest artists. Steve Grimm is an award-winning songwriter, Wisconsin Association of Music Industry (WAMI) Hall of Fame inductee, and founder of Milwaukee's Bad Boy, on lead guitar and vocals, blending rock, funk and blues in his unique and energy-charged delivery of original and covers. Craig Evans brings his dynamic lead vocals and the infectious bass grooves he's brought to The Rockerfellers, Bad Boy, and Cimmeron.
