LED ZEP TOO
A LIVE CELEBRATION OF LED ZEPPELIN
Celebrating 40 years of Led Zeppelin

Led Zep Too are considered by many LED ZEPPELIN fans to be the ONLY truly authentic homage to LED ZEPPELIN.  According to many UK promoters, they are one of the best, if not the best tribute band you will hear.

“Sure, at least half of the Zep tributes out there also aim to recreate the live arrangements instead of the studio tracks, but a more musically authentic, intense, and insanely loud version you'll not find anywhere. Why? Because Led Zep Too have captured the very essence of Led Zeppelin, adding an absolutely identifiable magic to the mix, and that's not learnable; it either exists or it doesn't.”
(Moaning Millsy)

It took 2 years to find the people, in excess of 200 gigs over 2 and half years, 2 vans, more drummers than SPINAL TAP! and just one insult to GARY MOORE for this outfit to prove, the old fashioned way, that they capture more than just the music and the look, but also as Millsy said........

......THE MAGIC!

Five years ago they started to assemble the pieces, three years ago they started on the road, and this year they will replicate the very first British concert dates performed by Led Zeppelin in 1968.  

The group was featured on BBC1 TV as part of the Play It Again series as well as in other media, including a feature in the UK newspaper The Daily Star and numerous features across the BBC radio network.  After the last few years of hard work, they now have reached a stage where their reputation precedes them.
