ROLAND, Okla. — Cherokee Casino & Hotel Roland will welcome “JUMP: America’s Van Halen Experience” at 8 p.m. Friday, Nov. 21, at Lee Creek Tavern inside the casino.
With the high-octane energy and unforgettable sound of Van Halen, “JUMP: America’s Van Halen Experience” will electrify the stage with Van Halen’s iconic hits like “Jump,” “Runnin’ with the Devil” and “Hot for Teacher.”
Having performed to sold-out crowds across multiple states and earning spots on international tours in Canada and Australia, “JUMP” has quickly earned a reputation as one of the most exciting and authentic Van Halen tribute acts in the world.
Based out of Toledo, Ohio, the young and dynamic band captures the essence of Van Halen’s David Lee Roth era with stunning precision. Their performances feature blistering Eddie Van Halen-style guitar solos, a powerhouse rhythm section and the unmistakable two-tone screams that defined Roth’s vocals. Every detail, from their stage presence to the intricate musicality, pays homage to the band’s prime years from 1978 to 1984.
Audiences can expect two hours of rock nostalgia as “JUMP” performs a mix of hits and deep cuts from Van Halen’s first six albums. The band’s show goes beyond the music, incorporating classic stage antics, banter and skits inspired by live bootlegs from the original band’s early tours for a night that is pure rock ‘n’ roll.
