BIO
Although El Loco Fandango was officially formed nearly 2021, the idea had been floating around for some time. Don and Mike often heard “hey it’s ZZ Top” when they were seen together at a bar or local show. The “fateful” day that Tim Elliott overheard the comment, he stepped up and the trio was born! For the next several months, the guys put together a set culled from ZZ Top’s vast, 50 years in the making, library of songs.
Tribute bands are all about the details, so creating a great ZZ Top show required a lot attention to both look and sound. Don, Mike and Tim carefully crafted the tone to emulate the live performances as well as the recorded versions of their biggest hits. When it comes to wardrobe, a lot of time has been spent shopping at fine Western wear, searching for proper beard care and ensuring the proper amount of “bling” is present on each ensemble. All that, along with the wide selection of matching instruments, bring unmatched authenticity to the show.
EL Loco Fandango been a major success and in a short time the boys have established themselves as one of the top tributes acts in Colorado. This year’s schedule will go across state lines and get them on the road to be truly “Nationwide”. Be sure to check out “That Little Old Band from Texas Experience” at a venue near you, and bring your Tube Snake Boogie shoes.

FAN FEEDBACK
ZZ Top was one of the first handful of concerts I saw starting in 1976. I was such a big fan of both their early and late hits. El Loco Fandango: Colorado Tribute to that “Little ole Band from Texas” is so good and authentic from sound to their look, they transport me right back to those magical concert days. It’s also been my pleasure to work shows with them; Easy and professional. Cannot wait until the next one coming up, a veterans charity concert Freedom Fest Mini Purple Heart Series on October 21st!!!!

By far the most authentic ZZ Top Tribute Band in the USA. The attention to detail with both the music and the look are incredibly accurate and true to the real band. I sometimes do a double-take when I see them and have to look closely to see if it’s El Loco Fandango or ZZ Top!
~Bill Owen
As Tribute bands go These guys are doing it RIGHT. The look, the guitars the performance is spot on as a great tribute should be! If you close your eyes you’d swear you were at a ZZ Top concert! Nuff Said!
