Don’t let the name fool you. The Fabulous Armadillos are not going unplugged, but they are playing songs built on a foundation of acoustic guitars and instruments. Songs from groups like America, Gordon Lightfoot, James Taylor, Jim Croce, Crosby Stills and Nash, Simon and Garfunkel, Tom Petty, and the Eagles all made this sound popular. But groups like Heart, Kansas, Boston, Fleetwood Mac, Pink Floyd, Bon Jovi, and Led Zeppelin also had songs driven by acoustic guitars. The Fabulous Armadillos like to push the envelope and take you “all over the music map”, featuring special guests and great songs Dillo’s style.
