Kiss The Sky: RE-Experience Jimi Hendrix

KISS THE SKY! - Voted "The World's Greatest Tribute to Jimi Hendrix" on AXS-tv at the legendary Whisky A Go-Go in Hollywood, CA, Kiss The Sky is more than just a tribute band; their performances are RE-Creations of Jimi Hendrix’s most classic concerts & landmark stage show performances. Led by guitar virtuoso and living protege of Jimi Hendrix, Jimy Bleu, KISS THE SKY is boldly presenting the world’s most historically accurate Jimi Hendrix tribute show EVER! "Kiss The Sky is SPECTACULAR! So often with tribute bands people say, close your eyes, they sound just them, but with Kiss The Sky you MUST keep your eyes OPEN because the guitar playing, vintage gear, costumes and stage presence is so out of this world your jaw will drop!" - Katie Daryl, Host and Executive Producer, "The World's Greatest Tribute Bands"/AXS-tv. Kiss The Sky is fronted by a protege of Jimi Hendrix, virtuoso guitarist and former Columbia recording artist, Jimy Bleu. Bleu, is the longest running Hendrix tribute specialist in the world and even tours with former Hendrix Bassist, Billy Cox and his Band of Gypsys Experience. Kiss The Sky is so 'EXPERIENCED' that all 3 of Jimi's remaining former bandmates and living legends (Billy Cox, Juma Sultan and Jerry Velez) have each played on stage along side the band, and also offer their support and endorsements to Kiss The Sky. "The world knows Jimi Hendrix was in a league of his own and there is no better band that captures the essential Hendrix legacy, or a more exact tribute to Jimi than Kiss The Sky! This is my only endorsement of any tribute band and believe me, I only give it because I can picture my friend Jimi himself smiling down with approval." - Gerardo Velez, Founding member of Spyro Gyra/Hendrix percussionist & Woodstock bandmate with the Gyspy Sun and Rainbows KISS THE SKY is a full-out musical tribute show sensation, encompassing Jimi's entire career in detailed fashion, RE-Creating Jimi's most iconic concert sets; from MONTEREY POP, BAND OF GYPSYS (Live at the Fillmore), WOODSTOCK, and The Isle of Wight and more. "People are not used to seeing Jimi Hendrix being performed the way Jimi Hendrix (actually) did it, They want to see the tricks he did, the way he sang and played the guitar with his body. That was one of the first things that impressed me when I saw him (Jimy Bleu) ... When they see that, they are pretty much shocked.” - fan interview Playing such hits as: FIRE, HEY JOE, FOXEY LADY, VOODOO CHILD, PURPLE HAZE, MACHINE GUN, LITTLE WING, WATCHTOWER, and more, with 60's ERA replica wardrobe and musical gear completely accurate to the original, Kiss The Sky gives audiences of today a glimpse of what it was like to have seen Jimi Hendrix at the peaks of his career. " What I saw ...is more akin to a museum quality exhibit than anything I’ve ever witnessed in the tribute world. I highly recommend catching a Kiss the Sky show for a full immersion into what it must’ve been like to see Hendrix in his prime." - Christian Swain, Founder and Host of Podcast Network /“The Rock N Roll Archaeology Project " ​​Rolling Stone says, "Yes, believe the hype! This show lives up to it!"
