For this special presentation, The Insiders will be performing the music of The Traveling Wilburys, also featuring songs by individual Wilburys members Bob Dylan, George Harrison, Roy Orbison, ELO, and of course, Tom Petty.

Close your eyes and you won’t know the difference. Open them and you still might be fooled. The Insiders present the premier Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers experience. With 6 veteran musicians and decades of combined stage and touring experience, The Insiders are genuinely running down the dream.

It all starts with frontman Max Lockwood. I grew up listening to Tom Petty. My mom would play the Greatest Hits record while she worked out. I’d sit at the top of the stairs and listen to those songs—it was my most requested CD as a young kid. In high school, Lockwood’s band Big Dudee Roo started covering Petty songs at their frequent shows in West Michigan. Tom Petty was part of the great American landscape to me—a legend by the time I was musically conscious. We got a great crowd reaction with Petty tunes, and people frequently commented that I sounded a lot like him.

Nothing has changed with time. After the passing of Tom Petty in October of 2017, Lockwood organized the band by pulling together some of his favorite musicians for a benefit concert. After a sold-out show that raised thousands for a local domestic violence shelter The Insiders decided they wouldn’t back down. We try to honor what Mr. Petty and the Heartbreakers have done for rock and roll each night. We’re fans of the music first and foremost. These songs are woven into the fabric of the American identity. They’ve found no shortage of demand, selling out shows everywhere they go. Local Spins’ John Sinkevics had this to say: The Insiders set the bar at a new level for Tom Petty tributes.

The Insiders are based in Grand Rapids, Michigan and currently tour the Midwest and beyond. They are available for public and private functions.
