ALL FEMALE LED ZEPPELIN TRIBUTE BAND ZEPPARELLA COMES TO ASHLAND ARMORY ON
FEBRUARY 7
Renegade Productions welcomes Zepparella to the Historic Ashland Armory, 208
Oak Street in Ashland, OR on Thursday, February 7 at 9pm. Zepparella are
four women intent on bringing the passion, the beauty, the aggressionŠ the
musicality of Led Zeppelin alive. Not to be missed, the doors are at 8pm and
tickets are $15 in advance. This is a 21 and over venue.
Zepparella delivers an explosive, emotional musical journey at every event.
They take on the challenge of balancing their devotion to playing the songs
as close to the original as possible, while taking advantage of their own
musical communication and carrying the audience away on the ride.
The combination of personalities in Zepparella is something extraordinary.
>From the first time on stage there was such a strong musical connection that
to the girls it felt like a homecoming. And in a musical career, that kind
of connection may be the most elusive gift of all.
The players:
Anna Kristina, the popular Bay Area stage actress, vocalist and solo artist,
brings her seductive style and powerful range to front the band with
consistently transcendent performances. Her soulful delivery is
mesmerizing. For a list of her many projects and accomplishments, visit
www.annakristina.com.
Gretchen Menn applies her dazzling and emotive guitar playing to the leads.
After her stint as Agnes Young in the top-grossing Bay Area band AC/DShe for
three years, and then touring as the second guitarist in the national metal
band BOTTOM, she now takes on the Page lines with an arresting ability that
can¹t be missed.
Nila Minnerock¹s seminal bass playing, dark, beautiful, aggressive, melodic,
fills out the bottom end of the band. Her joined-at-the-hip connection with
Clementine began nine years ago in BOTTOM, and close to 20 trips around the
US, Canada and Europe and three records have created the remarkably
intuitive rhythm section that Zeppelin deserves. Nila also currently plays
in the metal band Mudface with Ted Aguilar of Death Angel.
Clementine tackles the best rock drumming ever written with her own
powerfully passionate style, bringing the Motown influence of the Bonham
groove to the forefront. As Phyllis Rudd in AC/DShe and throughout the run
of BOTTOM, she developed a heavy-hitting sound suited to attempt Zeppelin.
The musical connection established with Gretchen in AC/DShe and the lifelong
rhythmic conversation with Nila creates the bond required to do this great
music justice. www.clemthegreat.com
Individuals with widely diverse musical tastes, Led Zeppelin¹s music is
common ground. The magic of Zeppelin was the dynamic energy between the four
musicians, and the songs allow Zepparella to feel that energy too. So it's
natural that they begin a project of original music, The House of More.
Bringing the western United States stellar events for over a year, the Zep
Quartette revel in creating spectacular multi-media events. A favorite was a
night celebrating the gorgeous surrealism of the late 60¹s, complete with
Tom Jonesing opening the show and the girls playing an all-Zep soundtrack to
the movie Barbarella.
