The Experience
From the minimalist post-punk sounds of early U2 to their stadium-filling anthems, Bullet The Blue Sky meticulously recreates the band's signature sound. With a 14 ft wide video wall and using period-correct wardrobe, instruments and effects, the group delivers an authentic sonic and visual experience that will transport audiences back to U2's most memorable concerts.
​
How We Started
Nikki made a post online that said “Bono looking for The Edge”. Ted was formerly the founding guitar player for Under A Blood Red Sky, one of the first well known tribute acts in the western US. It was a natural fit to use that experience to create something new. Pete also replied to the post “Hey if you also need a bass player…” Nikki had played with Jamie before and remembered him as the perfect “Larry” style drummer which completed the band.
