Desperado is a world-class Eagles Tribute Band consisting of five extraordinarily
talented and accredited musicians, that just happened to be in the same
place at the same time.
Desperado have taked extreme measures in order to bring forth the authentic,
original sounds that echo through the many decades of the Eagles.
It has been said that the caliber of talent that this band wields rivals
that of the Eagles themselves, from the subtle sounds of the pedal steel
guitar in "Best of My Love", the mandolin in "Lyin' Eyes",
to the banjo in "Take It Easy" and "Midnight Flyer".
The band's emulation of some of the most complex and extremely precise
vocal harmonies to ever come forth is second to none. We are confident
that you will enjoy the excitement of the music of the Eagles as much
as Desperado enjoys performing them for you!
