Under a Blood Red Sky is an acclaimed U2 tribute band that passionately
recreates authentic U2 concerts. Covering the War tour in
1983 to present day, each show has amazed fans with their
ability to recreate famous U2 shows and has solidified their
reputation for sold out venues - including the world-famous
Red Rocks Amphitheater near Denver, Colorado!
Billy Bunting
had been a rabid U2 fan since he saw the band in New Haven,
CT in 1981. Billy never forgot Bono climbing up to the balcony
of this old theatre singing “Sunday Bloody Sunday”
at the top of his lungs and thought, “I want to do
that!” From that point forward, Billy immersed himself
in U2 music and that event helped shape Billy as a singer.
After 20+ years as professional musicians, Billy and Jerry
Bousquet returned to their roots and formed Under a Blood
Red Sky.
Under a Blood Red Sky got its start by recreating the legendary
1983 "Live at Red Rocks" concert on New Year's
Eve 2005 at a sold out show at the Paramount Theater in
Denver, CO. It went over huge!!! The fans were taken back
to that foggy June 5th evening and ended the night by singing
the refrain from "40" as the band left the stage.
It was exactly like Red Rocks and Billy “Bono”,
Ted “The Tedge”, Todd “Adam” and
Jerry “Larry” have never looked back –
providing fans the best U2 experience this side of Dublin!!
Not only does Under a Blood Red Sky play and sound like
U2, their amazing attention to detail creates a visual experience
that the most ardent U2 fan would recognize. Under a Blood
Red Sky makes every effort to replicate wardrobe, stage
props, video/audio choreography, instruments and equipment
from many famous U2 concerts around the world.
In August 2007, Under a Blood Red Sky was the first U2
tribute band to ever play Red Rocks amphitheater. Fans reminisced
at the sold-out venue as the band recreated the ultimate
U2 experience not seen or heard since June 1983. The music
of U2 echoed off the walls of Red Rocks with over 9,000
fans chanting the lyrics of great U2 songs such as With
or Without You, Pride (In the Name of Love), and Sunday
Bloody Sunday.
Come out and sing along with them....and feel the power
of one of the greatest bands of our time.
