A Tribute to a Rock of Ages

A Rock band for every generation-titilating entertainment from the beginning to the final bamf of the show. Emerson Biggins originated and formed in early 1993. This year marks their 32nd Rocking anniversary.

Their original influence stems from artists like AC/DC, Lynyrd Skynyrd, Tesla, Queen, Led Zeppelin, David Bowie, Kiss, Van Halen, Green Day, ZZ-Top and so many more...Emerson Biggins has had such an overwhelming response for how well they have performed some, “Top 40 hits”, from the 50’S, 60’s, 70’s 80’s 90’s and all throughout the 2000's. Rocking songs from every decade adding their own twist and bigginizing the song the only way they know how, Amazing Stuff.

Their sound is a unique blend of rock, metal, mixed in with pop, blues, punk and funk turned up with our edgy, take no prisoner’s type of attitude, and their goal is to entertain everyone at the show until the last note is played, BAMF! Good Night

Catch them on Saturday, August 1st at Twin Rivers Saloon! Doors open at 3PM and the show kicks off at 4PM. Digital tickets are available via the Eventbrite link in our bio and physical tickets are available at Twin Rivers Saloon, 108 Sports Bar, and Barkers Music.
