Band Bio

SPIN Magazine - Doug Brod | Chief Editor
"Best New Discovery - South By Southwest 2008"

Boston Globe
"Pure hard rock...blessed with a singer as well as a menacing wall of riffage and tunes about chicks and rocking out, the Chicago quintet is a good, sleazy time."

Entertainment Weekly
"If you like…in the Motley Crue mold, grab the new one by The Last Vegas."

Village Voice (Chuck Eddy)
"Well-swung post-garage pre-punk and/or pre-grunge long-haired dirty-white-boy riff-and-squeal hard rock.”

The Last Vegas are the return of trashed-up, guitar-driven, leather-clad rock. They rule the nights in United States and Europe, touring consistently throughout 2006-2008, delivering hi-energy rock action.

The Last Vegas are featured on Guitar Hero 2, Nascar.com, NBC Sports, UK's Kerrang Radio, MTV, MTV2, Fox, Fuel TV, Fearless TV/Radio, Q101, WLUP, The G-Hole, Camel Farm Program and as the official music of Kyle Busch Motor Sports.

The Last Vegas have independently sold over 10,000 records, toured in 17 countries within US/Canada/Mexico/Mainland Europe, and are the top rock band in Chicago.

The Last Vegas were selected as the “Be a Guitar Hero 2” competition winner, beating out thousands of bands and earning a spot on the wildly popular, 5-million-unit selling video game, Guitar Hero 2.

The Last Vegas have made festival appearances at Sweden’s Gearfest, Italy’s Bridgestock Festivo, Denmark’s Primitive Fest, Milwaukee’s Summerfest, Austin’s South By Southwest, Belgium’s Sjock Festival, CMJ, Sleazefest, Van’s Extreme Sports Tour, Montreal’s Degeneration Overdrive, and Rockford Speedway’s Memorial Day Event rocking over 25,000.

The Last Vegas could very well be the band that clears the slate for the future of hard rock’n’roll. Strap it on and turn it up.
