The Elton Dan shows are more like Vegas concerts, than local band shows. We are just lucky enough they live locally so we get more opportunities to see them. Better than $150 tribute shows in the big cities, and each show is different and exciting. I've seen them in 5 states now and found that their music is soothing for the soul!

Elton Dan and the Rocket Band put on an incredible show wherever they go! Both Dan and each of the members of the exceptional band are extremely talented and personable. Their love of performing shine through. The last three shows have been sell outs, and I hate to see them go to larger venues because one of the greatest joys is the smaller, more intimate venues they choose.
Recommended to everyone, and their parents and kids!

About Elton Dan and the Rocket Band
"There is only one Elton John, and there will only ever be one Elton John." Elton Dan gives his audience a superb live experience of Elton John's music. Elton Dan played classical music when he was learning to play the piano as a teenager. Then he heard Elton John, who became his greatest influence. Through decades of improvising and singing on thousands of stages from bars to cruises to amphitheaters, Dan thrives on playing live and jumps at every gig offered him. Dan always added Elton John songs when the band was strong enough to pull it off. In 2015, with the popularity of tribute bands on the rise, Dan finally decided to realize his destiny and lead a project paying homage to the greatest songbook in rock music. Thus, Elton Dan and The Rocket Band was formed.
“Elton John is my all-time favorite artist and my primary inspiration for playing music,” Elton Dan says. “There’s a lot to it. It’s not a challenge to play and sing, but the diversity from album to album is a rich tapestry of influences including blues and especially country music. I play his music every day, not only to get better, but to be enriched and learn more of his compositions.”
At an Elton Dan concert, you will be enveloped into the magic of Elton’s music through a multimedia production, over-the-top costume changes, the incredible musicianship of the Rocket Band and the high-energy performance that Elton Dan brings to the stage like Elton John of the day's past. “So much energy and pure joy!”, “Fantastic costumes and production!”, “Mesmerizing,” are a taste of the comments from their fans. “I want our shows to be a true tribute to the greatest musical artist ever,” Dan says. “When someone attends one of our shows, I don’t try to imitate Elton. Rather, I want the concertgoer to be immersed in the full experience.”
Maybe Dan’s greatest talent is his love of people and ability to share the spotlight such that the audience feels like they are the rock stars! Fans now follow The Rocket Band around the country, flying or driving in and meeting up with Dan and the band.
“I do love to interact with people before, during and after the shows, I feed on it,” Elton Dan says. “Seeing people become empowered, validated, even healed through a live music event is transformative in my life.” “We embrace ALL people to come and celebrate and be emboldened by the soundtrack of our lives that Elton and Bernie have left to us. It’s a tremendous honor and brings me great passion.”
Dan’s philanthropic work extends beyond the stage, and he seeks to participate in humanitarian causes. Elton Dan and his band have helped raise over $300,000 for the Dream Factory, which gives terminally or critically ill children their biggest wish. They also have raised over $170,000 for Children’s Mercy Hospital in Kansas City, Missouri, a facility.dedicated to treating the medical needs of children. Elton Dan performed with Danny De Los Reyes of the Zac Brown Band for the children at Children’s Mercy Hospital. “I want to honor not only Elton but also his generous legacy and the culture he stands for,” says Elton Dan.
Elton Dan has attended 17 Elton John concerts around the globe, including being front and center during Elton’s final live shows in North America at Dodger Stadium this past November. Dan has interacted with David Furnish, Elton John’s partner. As done last year, on Elton’s birthday, March 25, Dan will video the audience singing “Happy Birthday” to Elton and send it to David for Elton to enjoy. It’s just another example how Elton Dan finds ways to make his concerts an even greater event to empower and celebrate people.
