Is Everybody In? Experience the Ultimate Doors Tribute Show...
The American Night, from Seattle Washington, takes the audience on an entertaining journey with the sound, theatrics, myth, and experience that were The Doors! The music is performed by musicians who are passionate about The Doors legacy, with an authentic live feel, using original vintage instruments to recreate the unmistakable energy and rock theatre that was a live Doors performance!
"The music was new
black polished chrome
And came over the summer
like liquid night." -- JDM
The American Night is a complete Doors tribute experience with the parts of Jim Morrison, Ray Manzarek, John Densmore, and Robby Krieger faithfully delivered on stage. To experience an American Night show, is to step back in time to an evening of music, poetic drama, and the unexpected. The show unfolds before the eyes of the audience who imagine they have witnessed a legendary Doors performance. Sonically and visually, The American Night hits the mark.
Unlike some Doors tribute shows, which focus entirely on the part of Jim Morrison, The American Night is a complete Doors tribute experience. True to the original, The American Night employs no bass player, with the bottom end commanded by the left hand of the organist, Brian Hukill. The organs used are authentic and identical in every way to those used by Ray Manzarek from 1967-1971. The sound is unmistakable.
Milo Anderson finger-picks the unique combination of blues, flamenco, and bottleneck slide guitar characterized by The Doors. His slides, jagged, wicked looking instruments, crafted from broken off wine bottle necks, recreate the haunting bath of psychedelic energy coined by Doors guitarist Robby Krieger.
As any true Doors fan will attest, the jazz inspired rhythms of John Densmore are a crucial piece to the The Doors sound -- percussionist Brett Rudy delivers!
Last, and certainly not least, the part of Jim Morrison, the ‘Lizard King’, is recreated on the stage by Nate Christian, tugging and tormenting the audience into frenzy.
From classic songs Light My Fire and Break On Through to The End, The American Night presents a complete Doors tribute experience and wraps it in a bow of joy, horror, confusion, puzzlement, ecstasy, and rock theatre that was...THE DOORS!
Is everybody in? The ceremony is about to begin. Wake up!
The American Night is available to entertain at any club, venue, or special event in the western United States and beyond. For booking, contact the band via email at booking@theamericannight.com.

GLAD TO BE YOUR FRIEND, HOPE YOU HAVE A WONDERFUL AND AMAZING DAY. STRIVE TO MAKE A DIFFERENCE IN SOMEBODY'S LIFE TODAY, YOU'LL FEEL AMAZING AND REAP GREAT BLESSINGS!
Darn it, I only just now saw your comment. Rock Steady ended up having to practice last night, and honestly I probabably would've been too pooped to be fully present for it. But count on us showing up at one of your shows soon. In fact, my beau Jeff and I spent about half an hour just a few nights back, listening to demos of yours and marveling at the amazing talent of you and the entire band. You guys are really something, and we can't wait to see you.
Take this kiss upon the brow! And, in parting from you now, Thus much let me avow- You are not wrong, who deem That my days have been a dream; Yet if hope has flown away In a night, or in a day, In a vision, or in none, Is it therefore the less gone? All that we see or seem Is but a dream within a dream.
I stand amid the roar Of a surf-tormented shore, And I hold within my hand Grains of the golden sand- How few! yet how they creep Through my fingers to the deep, While I weep- while I weep! O God! can I not grasp Them with a tighter clasp? O God! can I not save One from the pitiless wave? Is all that we see or seem But a dream within a dream?
