From humble beginnings in small UNLV college
clubs to late night T.V., Purple Reign has risen to international
acclaim and recognition as the world’s #1 Prince Tribute.
On November 17, 2008 the group became the 1st ever tribute/impersonator
act to appear as the musical guest on Late Show with David
Letterman. That show was chosen by CBS and Late Show to
ring in the New Year and re-aired January 1st, 2009 at 12:15am
(New Years Eve). Less than 45 days later it became the 1st
musical performance of 2009 on Letterman.
2009 also saw Purple Reign crowned "Best
Tribute Act" by the 28th annual Las Vegas Review Journal
Poll, winning 2 awards by both the staff and readers.
Purple Reign captures the imagination and
seamlessly re-creates the blistering performances and raw
energy of Prince in his prime and returns you to the era
that made "The Artist" an international superstar.
Featuring a tribute to Morris Day and The Time, this show
is a must see for "Purple Rain" movie fans and
all live music fans alike!
