Bio

San Diego’s The PettyBreakers are a Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers tribute active since 2010, with performances in 26 states and Washington, D.C. Their credits include AXS-TV, a 2017 Harrah’s Reno residency, and MLB’s 2018 All-Stars Pregame Celebration in Washington, D.C.

The PettyBreakers are a Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers tribute band based in San Diego, California. Active since 2010, they have grown from a regional act into what their current materials describe as the nation’s #1 touring tribute to Tom Petty & the Heartbreakers.

During a live AXS-TV broadcast from the Whisky a Go Go in Hollywood, Ryan Seacrest, Mark Cuban, and Katie Daryl dubbed them The World’s Greatest Tribute to Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers. Their show is built to reflect the details of the original records and live sound, from guitar parts and piano lines to the vocal delivery.

Over the last decade, the band has performed in 26 states and Washington, D.C., with bookings that have included performing arts centers, theaters, casinos, clubs, festivals, and corporate events. Career markers in the current materials include an AXS-TV live cablecast in 2014, a four-and-a-half-month residency at the Sammy Davis Jr. Showroom at Harrah’s Reno in 2017, and an appearance at the Naval Yard in Washington, D.C. for Major League Baseball’s All-Stars Pregame Celebration in 2018.

For buyers, the format is easy to place: a Tom Petty-focused tribute built around well-known songs including American Girl, Free Fallin’, and Refugee, with a track record across ticketed venues, festivals, and private events.
