When you hear someone mention "Tom Petty Tribute Band", you immediately think of someone in a tacky blonde wig and a cheesy vocal performance with a fake, nasally-Bob Dylan type delivery. Well, that is not who Petty Thief is.

Petty Thief is a no frills rock band from Seattle, WA who meticulously encompass the Tom Petty sound and musically establish an emotional connection with the crowd that's assembled. When asked why they didn't take the impersonation and prop-driven approach, founder Andy Volmer says, "we wanted to approach the tribute genre as a true live rock and roll band, not a novelty act, and with the current lineup of the band, we have what no one else has - the most authentic and genuine sounding Tom Petty experience in the Pacific Northwest."

The members of Petty Thief all come from a background of recording and touring with various successful cover, tribute and original bands and perform the music of Tom Petty and The Heartbreakers with the same passion and dedication. They pay tireless attention to detail to each and every song they play, which appeals to both casual and diehard Tom Petty fans alike. Petty Thief was originally formed back in 2007 by Andy Volmer as a spoof for a Halloween show, but 2023will mark the 16th Anniversary of the band, and they are thrilled to be out there, playing to the lovers of Tom Petty's music.

If you want to experience Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers music there's only one band that can deliver that sound authentically. There's something happening...something that's real rock n' roll, something the millions of Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers fans around the world need right now, more than ever. And its Petty Thief.

"Music is probably the only real magic I have encountered in my life. There's not some trick involved with it. It's pure and it's real. It moves, it heals, it communicates and does all these incredible things"
- Tom Petty (1950-2017)

The Trembling Thrilburys celebrate the music of the greatest "Supergroup" of all time, The Traveling Wilburys, as well as music from individual members of the band; George Harrison, Tom Petty, Bob Dylan, Roy Orbison and Jeff Lynne (ELO). Formed in 2021, but interrupted due to the Covid-19 epidemic, they reformed in early 2024 and are bringing this classic music back for all to enjoy.
