About the Band
HOTEL CALIFORNIA – The Eagles Tribute From Canada.
For over three decades now HOTEL CALIFORNIA have been recreating the legendary sound of THE EAGLES, and thrilling audiences all over the world. The band set the bar in 1986, and they’ve remained the industry leading substitute for The Eagles ever since. Playing to huge outdoor and arena audiences, sharing bills with some of rock’s legends, and going places no tribute band has gone before. A long run by any measure, but it begs the question - what makes HOTEL CALIFORNIA so special? Well, incredible lead vocal similarity, intensely accurate instrumental work, soaring harmonies, and top flight live performances, just for starters. These are the band’s hallmarks, and the foundation on which their reputation has been built. With over a century of collective professional experience in the band today, they’re still going stronger than ever!
The band also offers tons of value-added promotional support and materials to every client, and the confidence that industry insiders have in them has made HOTEL CALIFORNIA one of the world’s most accomplished tribute productions. You can check them out any time you like, but you’ll never want to leave.
If you love The Eagles, then welcome to the Hotel California – you’ve just found the next-best thing.
More About The Band
When The Eagles stopped to catch their breath a few decades ago, having sold over 100 million records, collected six Grammy’s, and enjoyed six #1 albums, Hotel California began a pioneering journey through their history-making music that has taken them around the globe and thrilled hundreds of thousands of Eagles fans. It’s been a journey they could never have imagined back in 1986, but their dedication, unique musical gifts, and an obsessive commitment to doing this legendary music true justice in performance, set them apart from the many Eagles bands that came after them. Hotel California toured relentlessly from the 80’s straight through to today, setting the standard for world-class tribute productions as they went, and sharing stages with the likes of The Doobie Bros., Lynyrd Skynyrd, Gretchen Wilson, REO Speedwagon, and many more.
From Japan to Dubai, Toronto to Texas, Hotel California has boldly taken the tribute band where none had gone before them, and changed an industry’s collective mind about how good a “tribute” band could really be. Today Hotel California continues to tour internationally, and their stage show has evolved into one of the most impressive and popular productions on the North American soft-seat and festival circuits. Featuring original members within their strongest lineup to date, the band is enjoying what they do today more than ever, and it sure sounds like it! It won’t take you long to hear why legions of Eagles fans
come back to see them time after time, and the top venues & festivals have them back again and again. The easy-going warmth that comes from the band onstage exemplifies the Southern California sound of the 1970’s. The experience of a Hotel California show isn’t just about the band – it’s about celebrating the music and the memories, and the band gets the audiences involved and on their feet! Close your eyes and you’re right back there.The members of Hotel California have also performed in many other touring bands, such as The Guess Who, April Wine, Glass Tiger, Coney Hatch, and Foot In Cold Water.
visar. Rick valdes också för att öppna och stänga en kommande större Hollywood-filmrelease som heter "Grace and Grit" med bland andra Mena Suvari och Frances Fisher och regisserad av Sebastian Siegel.
Schuler kan ofta hittas utför med olika medlemmar av Denver band, som förundras likhet och pitch-perfekt timbre i Ricks sång. Schuler säger att kritiker inte förstod John när han levde. ”De trodde att han var Pollyanna och ytlig, men vad de inte förstod är den djupa, djupa själsinnet i hans musik. Han hade mycket ont i sitt liv, och han uttryckte smärtan i sådana vackra melodier, som också tappade in i andras smärta och talade till en generations smärta. Av alla hans låtar sjunger jag att det är "Sunshine" som får fler att gråta än någon av dem. "

Dessutom, i texterna till "Rocky Mountain High", finns det en viskning av en protestlåt, som är ett lägligt meddelande nu än någonsin. Och på ett typiskt Denver-sätt kommer protesten i form av att förena människor i anda snarare än att dela dem. "Det finns en rad där" varför de försöker riva ner bergen för att få in ett par fler, fler människor mer ärr på landet ", säger Schuler. "John hindrade OS från att komma till Aspen på grund av det, så Denver sjöng många protestlåtar, särskilt om kriget i Vietnam."

”Första gången Johns manager från 80-talet, Doug Belscher, träffade mig i Aspen, uttryckte han sin förvåning över hur slående jag liknade hans kära vän. Sedan dess och innan har jag haft många människor nära John som uttrycker sina erfarenheter som detta. Jag känner mig djupt kopplad till John inte bara genom hans musik och hans texter utan också för att vi båda är känsliga själar. Som kristen tror jag väldigt mycket på Gud och jag tror på superintention och det är saker som vi kanske inte helt förstår men jag tror att det finns bevis överallt. ”

Det har gått över 20 år sedan Denver gick bort, och Schuler säger att han kommer ihåg den sorg han kände den dagen, men han erkänner också att han var djupt mystiskt rörd av Gud. "Jag kommer ihåg att jag insåg att jag kanske skulle kunna förmedla Johns budskap för honom", säger han. ”Hans budskap är så tydligt ett av kärlek till Gud, kärlek till jorden, fred och kärlek till mänskligheten.
Det är oerhört hur främlingar känner sig direkt anslutna till Schuler, helt enkelt för att han speglar Denver i både kropp och själ. Och trots Johns död för över två decennier sedan fortsätter hans musik att röra världen, bevis med mer än hundra miljoner visningar av Denvers videor på YouTube. ”John var en romantiker, en antimaterialist i en materialistisk värld, som sjöng från sitt hjärta medan han bar sin själ. Jag delar det med honom, och det förbinder mig med människor. ” Dessutom säger han att historia också är en bra kontakt. ”CS Lewis sa det bäst när han förklarade att man skulle läsa gamla böcker för att låta århundradena blåsa igenom dig. Det är vad Johns musik och konst utnyttjar, det större medvetandet som är tidlöst. ”

Förutom att utföra Denvers hits, skriver och utför Schuler egna hits, inklusive "Rainmaker", en temasång som spelas i 35 miljoner hem varje vecka. Bland dess texter finns en Schuler-maxim: "Lev för att inspirera och bli inspirerad ..." Rick har fyra album på iTunes och ett nyinspelat Nashville-projekt som väntar på att släppas senare i år. Bland hans senaste ädelstenar är "Golden Days of Aspen Glow", en vacker sång som han skrev för att hyra John Denver och Dan Fogelberg, fotspåren som Rick går in i. "När vi slänger våra själar djupt i vinden, färgar livet oss och alla våra minnen ... ”

Precis som John Denver var känd för att utföra The Lord's Prayer på amerikanskt indiskt teckenspråk, utför Rick det på forntida hebreiska och låter sedan publiken sjunga med sig texterna på engelska. ”En av Ricks favoritpoeter, Rilke, skrev:” Musik är språket där hela språket slutar. ” Det är så jag känner för Johns budskap. Jag är bara tacksam för att vara en fackelbärare av hans arv. ”
