NEVERLAND (r.i.p. Michael Jackson)

About Me

You don't accidentally sell over 750 million records in your career. Michael Jackson was, is and always will have been a musical genius, who had sung and danced his way into HIStory, as well as our hearts. In 2008, we celebrated the 25th anniversary of his biggest achievement; the album, "Thriller." This mildstone had made everyone start to take a nostalgic look back at a career that has consumed every listener in its past, regardless of color, creed, background, trend, income or location for four decades. To tribute this legacy was really inevitable.

Hence in late 2007, we startedNEVERLAND...A unique cover band designed as an homage to the entire catalogue by the King of Pop while at the same time striving to entice droves of underground punk and hardcore fans in and around the Chicagoland area. The general formula is to take dozens of Michael Jackson classics and rearrange them in a punk format while maintaining the melody and basic integrity that make these songs timeless. The band hails from the Chicagoland area and is comprised of a series of bar hungry, working class musicians and close personal friends.
