Shortly after completing their 40th Anniversary Heartbreakers tour, Tom Petty passed away on October 2, 2017. Honoring this Rock & Roll Hall of Fame Inductee’s memory and keeping his music alive, The Refugees tastefully and respectfully celebrate the repertoire of this classic performer.

The Refugees have been entertaining Bay Area crowds since 2007, bringing the music of Tom Petty & the Heartbreakers to local stages with a stunning level of realism. Voted the top tribute band in the Bay Area on The Greg Kihn Radio Show, their extensive song catalog includes all of Petty's hits with the Heartbreakers, as well as his solo work, and other side projects like The Traveling Wilburys and Mudcrutch.

Recreating all the signature guitar solos and rich vocal harmonies down to the smallest detail, The Refugees make even die-hard Petty fans feel like they are at a Tom Petty concert. Iconic hits like “Free Fallin”, “American Girl”, “I Won’t Back Down”, “Refugee” and “Mary Jane’s Last Dance” honor the music and memory of one of the most popular musicians of our time.

"You got that Petty thing down...you guys sounded outstanding!" -Greg Kihn, KFOX 98.5

"I was amazed by their performance. They make you want to go out and buy Tom Petty CDs."

-Susan Snider, Southern Fried Magazine
