By Janine Hughes


A cover band and a tribute band are two very different things even though most people confuse the twp and use the other in place of the other. A cover band refers to a group of musicians that come together to entertain crowds but they do not play original music but play music that has been originally recorded by other famous musicians. They play at small venues such as pubs and parks for a small fee or just free food or bar privileges. These Las vegas cover bands are very popular among the young group mostly.

In Las Vegas, NV they are very common and there are several of them offering the same services. For people that are throwing a private party and wish to have a live band perform they are great option and are much cheaper. They perform at weddings and also birthday parties playing the songs that they have been requested to play.

Some well known bands did start from the bottom playing other peoples music. If a musician is really good at what he does, it is a great way to start and gain many followers and may be later with hard work, discipline and dedication they can gone to record their own original music. Some of them have made up to three cover albums before recording their own.

Having decided on which genre of music you are best at and you are comfortable with, look at you list once more and remove all those that are not within your selected genre. Knowing the structure of the song is also very vital.

Next step is looking for the original version of the song listen to it severally till you are sure that you have it at your finger tips. If you come across a difficult song, just let it and go on to the next easy one.
