The Live Eric Clapton Experience Show! About Bell Bottom Blues Website | YouTube | Facebook The Bell Bottom Blues was formed in 2007 with the vision of providing an audience with a true Eric Clapton Experience. Through its evolution, the band has been carefully constructed to create the essence of the Clapton sound, from his guitar arrangements to his distinctive vocal sound. This is what separates The Bell Bottom Blues from all others and makes us unique in the market. We have been told time and time again by our audiences and fans that “they close their eyes during a show and could swear that they were actually at a Clapton concert”. This is what we actually set out to achieve. Through each band member’s dedication, professionalism, and hard work, we have captured the sound and essence of the master himself through his various stages, from Cream, the Dominoes, and through his entire solo career. Our EC has captured his guitar styling and, more importantly, his exact vocal sound, which allows us to truly pay tribute to this rock and blues icon. Once again, our goal is to perform and allow our audiences to really feel like they are participating in an actual EC live event. There is no better satisfaction for us than seeing this actually occur and knowing we have achieved our goal. Some notable venues we’ve had the pleasure to play are Iridium NYC, BB Kings NYC, City Winery, Havana’s PA, New Hope Winery PA, Mcloone’s Supper Club NJ, The Stone Pony, Daryl’s House, Infinity Theater Ct, Courthouse Center for Arts Ri, Count Basie Theater NJ, Tally Ho Theater VA, Downtown Cabaret Ct, Lamp Theater PA, Paramount Theater NY, Dean Center PA, The Amp Theater DC, Dean Center MA, Tin Pan VA, Grand Casino, Harahas Casino, Empire City Casino, Resorts Casino, Foxwoods Casino, Hard Rock Casino, and Outdoor Summer Concert Series along the east.
Absolute Adele: Featuring Jennifer Cella
SET FIRE TO THE STAGE!Be prepared to be moved as Jennifer Cella captures the essence of Adele’s timeless hits, belting out powerful ballads and captivating the audience with their heartrending renditions! About Absolute Adele Website | YouTube | Facebook | Instagram In The Absolute Adele Tribute, Jennifer Cella delivers a stunningly accurate portrayal of the British songstress and pop icon, an artist she deeply admires. As a long-time fan, the seeds for this project started taking root many years ago upon the release of Adele’s debut album, “19”. From minute one, Jennifer fell in love with Adele’s unique style and voice, and spent hours immersed in the work of this rising star. As an accomplished singer who had already had success of her own with the world-renowned Trans-Siberian Orchestra, Jennifer recognized and admired the many various vocal techniques Adele has in her vocal toolbox, giving each lyric its own color and texture. She appreciated all the nuances and tones of Adele’s amazing instrument and became an adoring fan of her work. Jennifer’s adoration for Adele grew tenfold upon the release of her sophomore album, “21” which included hits such as “Rolling In The Deep’, “Set Fire To The Rain”, “Someone Like You” and “Rumor Has It” and catapulted Adele’s career status to bonafide superstar. Adele’s next album “25” had monster hits like “Hello”, “Send My Love” and “Water Under the Bridge”, but Jennifer’s connection to the lyrics was especially strong and resonated deeply with “All I Ask”, “When We Were Young” and “Remedy”, a song Adele wrote for her young son. While singing along, Jennifer felt like she was telling her own story through Adele’s lyrics. Her latest release “30” included the beautiful and poignant “Easy On Me”, which again Jennifer resonated deeply with, having shared the same life experiences that inspired Adele to write the song. The Absolute Adele Tribute is not just a concert. It is theatre, and Jennifer plays the role of Adele. Jennifer relies on her years of acting and theatre training to accurately portray the singer. She not only sings her songs but talks to the audience, explains the origins and backstories to the songs, just as Adele interacts with her audiences at her concerts. With ticket prices to Adele’s residency in Las Vegas ranging from $1500 to $30,000 per ticket, Jennifer is excited to make the music of Adele accessible to audiences all over the country with the Absolute Adele Tribute.
