Founded 2017 in Ventura, CAlifornia

Blackstar is the Central Coast's premier David Bowie tribute experience. While we do strive to reproduce the album sound for many of the songs in our extensive repertoire - our primary focus is to capture the energy and excitement of a live David Bowie show. From the funky blue-eyed soul grooves of Fame, Young Americans, and Golden Years, to the stadium rock anthems such as Ziggy Stardust, All the Young Dudes, and Under Pressure we can cover all of the many facets of Bowie's exceptional and storied career. We keep people on their feet and deliver an exciting experience for casual and die-hard Bowie fans alike. We have custom-tailored sets to best fit the venue and event and can provide up to 3 hours of entertainment.

From the moment they launched into their set, it was evident that Blackstar was no ordinary tribute act. Lead singer Kyle Fegley's vocals were a haunting reincarnation of Bowie's unique timbre, seamlessly transitioning between his various personas and vocal styles. The band's musicianship was equally impressive, meticulously replicating every intricate arrangement and intricate guitar riff in the setlist spanning Bowie's vast discography.

Blackstar are the torchbearers of David Bowie's enduring legacy. With their incredible musicianship, attention to detail, and sheer passion for their craft, they have elevated the art of tribute to new heights, ensuring that the Starman's celestial influence will continue to shine bright for today's audiences lucky enough to catch their show.

I’d been waiting like over 2 years to see these guys and it was sooo worth it. Awesome show, so much fun!Kylee Piquette
Hands-Down the best cover band in the area right now. Our customers can't get enough of them and they just always seem to bring them in and keep them dancing all nightShannon - Booking Manager San Souci Ventura
This isn't your typical 80s bubblegum-pop David Bowie cover band. This is the down & dirty, in-your-face Bowie of the 70s. The Mick Ronson-fueled Ziggy Stardust, Station to Station and Diamond Dogs years are front and center, with echoes of The Velvet Underground and The Stooges not far behind it. Blackstar delivers Bowie at his wicked 70s glam best.”Tommy Q . Music Editor Splash
