Join us for an exciting concert with the West Coast's Premiere Billy Joel Tribute Band, Billy Nation, at Bernardo Winery on September 10. Wrapping up our 2023 Summer Concert season with a bang, We present a musical celebration of an artist whose catalog has over 33 top 40 hits. Billy Nation entertains audiences with a high energy authentic concert experience of Billy Joel classics from the 70s, 80s, and 90s. Complete with Billy's signature grand piano, growling saxophone (played by our own Ross Rizzo Jr!) , rich harmonies, and audience engagement, Billy Nation captures Billy's stylistic range with ease from anthems like 'Piano Man' to rocking songs like 'You May Be Right' to beautiful ballads like 'Just the Way You Are.' Led by pianist/vocalist, Adam Shapiro, Billy Nation delivers with great performances and passionate live shows that bring back the authentic spirit of the Piano Man’s music. Billy Nation is not just a cover band; the group aims to capture not only the music but also the look and the aesthetics of what makes Billy Joel such a special artist. This tribute act will make you feel like you are experiencing one of Billy Joel’s concerts in his prime, bringing back the magic of that one-of-a-kind era of music. The show offers more than just music: Billy Nation goes to great lengths to recreate the magical atmosphere of those early Billy Joel shows, down to the aesthetics and the energy on the stage. This is perfect for those who want to re-live those magical memories, or even enjoying that experience for the first time, like traveling back in time.
