Cubensis, is one of several award-winning musical groups in Los Angeles. While considered both cover and tribute band, Cubensis pays homage to the best of the Grateful Dead. Other LA Cover bands in the area include those covering everything from Black Sabbath to the Grateful Dead. While some of these groups like to stay local, others like to tour nationally and internationally.
Unlike a counterpart, Dark Star Orchestra which is a pure tribute band, playing only full live shows, others play only certain tracks of an album. Whereas, Cubensis plays singles, albums and live shows. Since the group also plays full Grateful Dead album titles and shows, most refer to them as a tribute band.
Dark Star Orchestra is a cover band dedicated to all things Grateful Dead. In the beginning, the band only played live show. The fans created somewhat of a contest always trying to guess what show the band would cover next. While Knight Ryder, Pot Roast and others play great cuts from the Grateful Dead but also cover a wide range of other artists and titles.
Whether desiring to book a band like Cubensis, or others, booking information can often be found either on the homepage of the band, or on a number of YouTube videos. When looking to book a national or international act, it is often best to do so as far in advance as possible. Whereas, while this is a good idea with local acts as well, most often local acts are going to have more availability than national or international ones.
Musicians who play music from different line-ups on the other hand often work for tips. At times, there are situations in which performers can request a percentage of the bar, and cover charge. These solo performers, duos and smaller groups often play a wide variety of music of past and present. Whether Los Angeles, Nashville, New York or other areas in which live music is popular, using a listing service to find live entertainment is often the quickest way to do so.
When most think of cover groups, classic rock often comes to mind. Or, musicians just learning how to play; When actually, some of the best talents in the world are involved with various cover and tribute groups. Take for example the remaining members of The Grateful Dead, who just closed out one of their most incredible spin-off bands, Furthur, a band which sounds more like the original Grateful Dead than any other to date.
There are cover and tribute bands which are almost as popular as their original counterparts, and those, which still work for tips. Some have the capacity to present full on rock concerts, while others still play in coffee houses and church basements. Regardless, fans of any big name act with a tribute band are going to attend regardless of the venue.
Any musical group living in Los Angeles has no reason to be out of work, that is if the band is truly talented. In fact, there are far more clubs and other venues looking for musicians than musicians looking for gigs in the area. As such, websites like GigMasters can be very beneficial in connecting those seeking artists, with artists looking for gigs.
