Bio
From the sound, the rasp, the look, to the gear -- RUN TO YOU is the most authentic Bryan Adams tribute in the Nation.
Let’s face it – MTV constantly reminded us that BRYAN ADAMS was cool in the 80’s. We sang all his National Anthems that dominated our youth. Songs like Cuts Like a Knife, Summer of 69, Heaven, Straight from the Heart, Somebody, Heat of the Night, and Run to You – they were our breakfast of champions. Then, the 90’s arrived where BRYAN ADAMS seriously started Waking Up the Neighbors with a decade-long of megahits like Can’t Stop This Thing We Started, Everything I Do, The Only Thing Looks Good on Me, Please Forgive Me, Have You Ever Really Loved a Woman, (Baby) When You're Gone, and more! By the time 1996 arrived -- Bryan Adams was one of the biggest male solo artist in the world. Bottom Line: If you grew up listening to Bryan, then your childhood was cool. Now, with over 26 U.S. Billboard hits (close to 40 world-wide), 100 million records sold, an on-going legacy of continuous studio albums, 2023 Grammy nomination, there’s a reason why BRYAN ADAMS was Pollstar’s 2022 #8 ranking artist behind Elton John and Billy Joel.
Now enter the Dallas-based RUN TO YOU -- the Most Authentic Bryan Adams Tribute Band in the Nation. The band exploded onto the Dallas tribute scene in 2022. After only their second show – RUN TO YOU was getting recognized by a member of BRYAN ADAMS’ band. Bryan's longtime bassist, Solomon Walker, said: "Sounds great! You definitely have the voice down!" GODIN GUITARS from Canada also took notice and made Run to You official artists. The band even caught the eye of FENDER and became proud FENDER Artists. RUN TO YOU was asked to be a part of the 12th annual SWITCHYARD FESTIVAL and opened the show for National Recording Artists SOUL ASYLUM, HOOBASTANK, LIT, and MARCY PLAYGROUND.
RUN TO YOU hopes to Make a Night to Remember with each show. With BRYAN’S insane catalogue – no two shows will be the same. The music is note for note, without the use of any vocal or instrumental backing tracks.
RUN TO YOU is: Bart Van Bemmel as BRYAN ADAMS (Lead Vocals, Guitar) Gary Grant as KEITH SCOTT (Lead guitar) Tim Slack as SOLOMON WALKER (Bass guitar) Keith Hoffman as GARY BREIT (Keys) and Jay Ferguson as PAT STEWARD (Drums).
