Get the Led Out in Sacramento

About Get the Led Out

Get the Led Out is a Led Zeppelin tribute band that's been keeping Plant-and-Page's catalog alive on stages across North America since the early 2000s. They're meticulous about recreating the sound and feel of Zeppelin's studio recordings, which means you're getting the full orchestration of those songs—not a stripped-down bar band version. The band has built a solid regional following by treating this like a real job: studying every note, getting the dynamics right, respecting the source material. They play the obvious hits like Stairway to Heaven and Whole Lotta Love, but they'll also dig into deeper cuts that Zeppelin diehards actually want to hear. If you've always wanted to experience a full Zeppelin show but that door closed in the seventies, this is the closest legitimate substitute. They understand the difference between playing Zeppelin songs and channeling the band.

Sweaty, earnest crowds of varying ages who came specifically to hear Zeppelin. The room gets legitimately loud during the heavy stuff. People sing along, some stand transfixed. Zero irony. It's a working tribute band that takes itself seriously, and that sincerity is the whole point.

Known for Whole Lotta Love, Stairway to Heaven, Black Dog, Rock and Roll, Kashmir

Get the Led Out + Sacramento

Get the Led Out has made Sacramento a reliable stop on their circuit, most recently bringing their meticulous Led Zeppelin tribute to the Crest Theatre in October 2023. They worked through a deep catalog that night—opening with 'In the Evening' and moving through the catalog's less obvious corners like 'Down by the Seaside' and 'Hey, Hey, What Can I Do' before hitting the inevitable peaks. 'Moby Dick' landed somewhere in the middle of the set, giving the band room to stretch, while the closer 'Whole Lotta Love' sent people out the way they'd come in. For a band this detail-oriented, Sacramento's mid-sized venues offer the right scale—intimate enough to catch the nuance, large enough to let the music breathe.
