Georgia Players Guild

The incredible catalog of Creedence Clearwater Revival has stood the test of time and multiple generations. "Fortunate Sons" seeks to honor and prolong the awareness of this timeless band's musical contributions to the community while creating unforgettable moments within each show that pay homage to the band's ability to reach musical highs with sonic explorations that rise and fall like a "Bad Moon Rising". Green River, a song written about John Fogerty’s childhood vacation spot is a perfect example of how great music brings back excellent memories. Songs like “Born on Bayou”, “Run Through the Jungle” and “Susie Q” soar and take listeners on an expressive near psychedelic journey of guitar musings…an excellent representation of the band’s improvisational influences of the day. Other songs like “Commotion”, “Down On the Corner” and “Have You Ever Seen the Rain” showcase the band’s commitment to songwriting and the craft it demands. Classic sing-a-longs like "Up Around the Bend", "Lookin' Out My Backdoor", "Long as I can See the Light" and more complete a perfectly balanced night of music that every C.C.R. fan will know and love. Members of Fortunate Sons - the best of Creedence Clearwater Revival have individually appeared on network TV shows like America's Got Talent and onstage with musical giants like Derek Trucks, Oteil Burbridge, Ed Roland (Collective Soul), even gospel/R&B legends like Kim Burrell and Jennifer Holiday. From their home base at the historic Strand Theatre in Marietta, GA, their popularity has grown to put them in demand at theaters and festivals across the country. “So much talent in this band! Definitely a WOW experience! These guys and gals have music in their souls. We saw them at the Strand when they played the Music of CCR. They keep you coming back for more!” - Jenny R. “Talent, energy, style, and an evening of top notch music entertainment!” - Johnny S. "Fortunate Sons" is a product of The Georgia Players Guild - an agency of touring tribute shows across the country. Since 2014, they have staged hundreds of performances of over 30 different shows, paying tribute to over half a century of iconic music. No matter the band or genre, they go beyond just getting the songs right, seeking to make the experience true to the original.
