From different parts of the country and backgrounds\, members came together with a deep appreciation and mutual respect for each other\, the music they play and their audiences. Based out of Roseburg\, TOB has played events along Oregon's I-5 corridor for many years.

Weaving Zeppelin's live versions into the recorded renditions\, all songs are performed in the original keys\, complete with vocal harmonies\, keyboards and acoustics "A rock n roll show guaranteed to put you directly on the stairway to heaven!" "Seeing Living Loving Led is like taking an aesthetic multivitamin\, the show and the members are always gorgeous!"\n\n \n\nJune 27th Ben Rice & the Hustle\n\nBen Rice's music is deeply rooted in traditional blues\, yet at the same time fiercely original. His guitar playing earns labels like "fearless\," "inventive" and "powerful\," and he routinely brings audiences to their feet with his stunning and emotionally honest vocal delivery. The Hustle is an expansion of the trio that Rice has been playing with for the last decade. Adding instruments and singers offers up an expansion of the sonic palette Rice works with. \n\n \n\nJuly 11th Gretchen Owens & The Jake Brakes\n\nGretchen's authentic\, country voice navigates its way into the hearts of listeners. Growing up on a farm in the Pacific Northwest\, she surely has her own unique country style\, with a bold clarity and warmth in her velvety voice. With Gretchen's bright personality and a sparkle in her eye\, she is sure to captivate the crowd.\n\n \n\nJuly 18th The Chairman & the King *Back to the 50's\n\nRoger Anderson as Elvis.\n\nAs a child Roger was completely mesmerized by Elvis Presley.
