BAND DETAIL: Back In Black
YouTube Video
The Back In Black tribute band is an incredible, exciting, high energy
reproduction of a concert  performance of AC/DC. All the members of Back
in Black live in the Dallas and Fort Worth area and are experienced musicians
dedicated to capturing the power and excitement of AC/DC. We can play
many different types of shows that include all of the best material from
Bon Scott and Brian Johnson.
Back In Black was formed in late 2001 by former LA band mates Mike Mroz
(Angus) and Darren Caperna (Bon & Brian). Mike had always recognized the
potential of this project due to Darren's uncanny ability to transcend
both the spirit of Bon Scott and Brian Johnson into his voice. Jay Benzi
(drums), and Mike Wagner (guitar) were found via an ad in The Dallas
Observer. Taylor Smith (bass) was added due to his incredible
musicianship and voice. The band has created an incredible buzz which
has placed them as one of the top drawing bands in the area. They also
recently performed to over 36,000 people at the Bone Bash in Ft Worth,
and have been recruited by Sony Music, AC/DC's new record label, to
promote catalog sales. 20th Century Fox has chosen Back In Black over
all other tribute bands to record AC/DC's classics "A long way to the
top" and "TNT" for two of their movies.
The band has also performed with Warrant, Cheap Trick, Foghat, Bad
Company, Jackyl, Blue Oyster Cult, Grand Funk Railroad, Head East, Seven
Mary Three, Cardboard Vampires, Living Colour, Loverboy, and Vince Neil
of Motley Crue.
