Nearly thirty-six years ago Bob Seger first introduced The Silver Bullet Band to a surprised audience after the conclusion of a sold out BTO concert in Ann Arbor, MI. The rest is rock-n-roll history still in the making. Lookin' Back is a forward-looking project comprised of six noteworthy Detroit-area musicians who have united to help keep Bob Seger's music alive and performed on metro-Detroit & regional stages for the legions who profoundly identify with the man’s poetry, energy, and vast catalog of hits that now bridge five decades. While tribute bands and impersonators continue to pay homage to the usual rock-n-roll superstars - Led Zeppelin, Pink Floyd, The Beatles, U2, AC/DC, Bon Jovi, Aerosmith, Journey, and Rolling Stones to name just a scant few, the music of Bob Seger & The Silver Bullet Band consistently gets overlooked, even within the S.E. Michigan market where it all began….UNTIL NOW! Since our Aug. 29 2009 debut, Lookin' Back has headlined all 19 self-booked shows (9 sell outs), performed twice with Silver Bullet sax man Alto Reed, and a short ½ hour "Seger Sampler" for founding Silver Bullet drummer Charlie Martin’s favorite charity. In only their third appearance Lookin' Back was asked to perform to help launch Travelin' Man, a best-selling book about Bob Seger written by Tom Weschler (Seger's road manager/photographer) and Gary Graff (an award winning music writer), which was one of five concerts promoted by WCSX 94.7 “Detroit’s Classic Rock Station”. Lookin’ Back hosted a classy Bob Seger 65th Birthday Bash, performed on two award-winning Michigan golf courses, organized a Ted Nugent/Alice Cooper/Bob Seger tribute triathlon, entertained three municipal festivals, and rocked The Sands, Little River & Caesars Windsor Casino respectively. Most importantly, we’ve satisfied 1000’s of Seger’s most loyal fans by carefully recreating his most important album in a live concert presentation we call “Live Bullet Lives Again.” Rock N Roll Never Forgets but entertainment buyers and concert event organizers often do. Here are but a few highlights as to why Bob Seger deserves a world-class tribute band, and consequently our undivided attention: Bob Seger was inducted into the Rock-N-Roll Hall of Fame in 2004. Although his history runs deep, we focus our current production primarily around his mid-70’s era. In April of 1976 Bob Seger & The Silver Bullet Band had their big commercial breakthrough with the album Live Bullet which was recorded over two nights at Detroit's Cobo Arena in September 1975. The album remained on Billboard charts for 168 weeks, and peaked at #34 which was Seger's highest charting album at that time. It also contained a hit rendition of "Nutbush City Limits" (#69 US) as well as Seger's own classic take on life on the road, "Turn the Page" and his late 1960s successful releases Heavy Music and Ramblin' Gamblin' Man. Other hits on that record included Katmandu, Get Out Of Denver, Travelin’ Man & Beautiful Loser. The success of Live Bullet gave rise to his blockbuster follow-up album Night Moves that put Bob Seger squarely and forever after on the national stage. 3/5 of all initial sales of Live Bullet sold in Detroit-area record stores, and eventually reached 5x Platinum status. The Live Bullet record remains a music critic’s favorite, 44th best selling album of the 70s, and for almost 20 years was one of the top 50 live albums of all time. Seger's 1986-1987 American Storm was to be Bob’s last major tour which resulted in 105 shows over 9 months and sold nearly 1.5 million tickets. Most recently, Bob Seger’s Greatest Hits compilation was named the nations biggest selling compilation record of all time, selling nearly 10 million copies as of 2010. With all that said, we’ve dedicated ourselves to delivering for our clients a world-class Bob Seger & The Silver Bullet Band experience on par with the genuine article that we’re sure everyone will both appreciate and enjoy.
