Wayback Machine is the ultimate Tribute Band...

Not a tribute to any one particular band, but a tribute to

the greatest Era of Music EVER - the 60's and 70's!

(with a sprinkle of 80's just for fun!)

 

These fine musicians have performed throughout the metropolitan Detroit area for over 40 years, the last 15 years as  Wayback Machine.  The name, Wayback Machine, taken from the 1960's cartoon show "The Mr. Peabody and Sherman Show", where they used the Wayback Machine to travel back in time to significant events in history. These guys do the same, but rather taking you back to significant songs, artists and memories from the 60's, 70's and 80's!

 

From the classic hits of The Doors, The Grass Roots, Van Morrison, Steely Dan, Journey, The Rascals, Hall & Oates, The Byrds, The Hollies, The Zombies, Small Faces, Bob Seger and David Bowie to the multi-part harmonies of the Beatles, The Eagles and the Beach Boys; the soulful sounds of Motown to the funk power of Earth, Wind and Fire and Dr. John ... British Invasion, Summer of Love, Flower Power, Surf Music, Motown ... Wayback Machine takes you back to the classic rock and classic R&B of the 1960's, 70's and 80's with conviction, precision and professionalism. 

​

Wayback Machine is the ultimate party band, filling the dance floor by catering to their audience and daring to perform well known, yet rarely performed, songs that most other bands wouldn’t even attempt.
 

…and the beat goes on!
