According to the old idiom, imitation is the sincerest form of flattery, but some subjects worthy of flattery are not so easily imitated, and in the age of the tribute band, many a giant of the American songbook goes without authentic tribute simply because the original article set the bar a little too high.

Formed in late summer of 2009, The Stranger has already amassed an impressive list of high profile shows and events in the southeast. All 6 members residing in the Charlotte area with several decades and thousands of shows between them, it's a musical powerhouse that is quickly being recognized as one of the best live bands in the tribute genre. Also added to this formula is Ronnie Smith, an accomplished entertainer residing in Myrtle Beach, S.C. Ronnie is the Elton John of our "Face-2-Face" tribute that has played to thousands in 2010, including a successful and memorable performance at the legendary House Of Blues in Myrtle Beach. Currently available for any size event or venue, both national and international.
