Boys of Summer

The Boys of Summer Eagles Band hail right from Southern California. They grew up there and all have Eagles blood running through their veins. They re-create some of the greatest music ever written. With well over 400 high profile shows throughout the U.S. since 2004, BOS are becoming known as the top touring Eagles Tribute band in America.

The Eagles themselves sold over 120 million albums worldwide, and their music brings instant fond memories to the millions who bought their records and attended their concerts. Get on down to one of their shows, and you'll likely find yourself thinking the same as thousands before you.
"Close your eyes, and you're there".

Darrel Monson

Darrel is our voice crafting expert.  He can change his voice about as fast as Don Rickles or Billy Crystal… (Even though he thinks he’s Tommy Smothers.)  It doesn’t hurt that his family was touring all across the Midwest doing Gospel concerts all before he was even a teenager.   No sir, it didn’t hurt at all.

When he first heard The Beatles in 1964, he knew what he wanted to do and as well, the moment he first heard the Eagles, he knew the sound he wanted.  That’s all she wrote. That was it for him. The whole enchilada.

He has been involved in many musical efforts through the years (no name dropping), but none have been as fun as playing and singing the songs of the Eagles for Eagle fans!

We call him Scout Master as he’s an avid fisherman and explorer, but what truly makes him happy is the interaction with the fans….. Playing Eagles music comes from much love and respect for their songwriting...Truly..

Jimmy Williamson - 

In the words of Tom Petty, "The Drummer is The most important member of any group,” and Jimmy Williamson holds true to that thought right down to the bone. He’s as solid as a rock.

Jimmy Boy (as he's fondly been dubbed) studied the drums formally while growing up, and his father was a huge musical inspiration, surrounding him with people like Nat King Cole, Judy Garland, Frank Sinatra and more!!

Working with acts like Toto, REO, Stevie Nicks, Robben Ford, Joe Sample and Lee Ritenour, he saw how it was done on the highest of levels, and now he finally gets to put all his knowledge into action on his own behalf, and of course, ... all while living the dream.

Nate King - 

Nate is our overall utility player. He can play the B-Bender guitar (like Bernie Leaden), the slide guitar (like Joe Walsh), the rock leads (like Don Felder), and even the Pedal Steel Guitar.

Nate grew up in Detroit listening and playing with a multitude of amazing jazz and R&B artists. After moving to Los Angeles, Nate has toured and played for over 2 decades with a wide spectrum of acts, from Rock to Country, from Pop to Be-Bop, and everything in between.

Mike Bear - 

Mike is a true musician and has dedicated his life to music through playing the bass. Amongst the many genres of music Mike involved himself with through the years,he never got to truly study the bass lines of Randy and Timothy.

After combing over the Eagles catalog he became a fanatic for the songs and recordings, and he truly plays the songs as Randy and Timothy did. He even shares his talent on the fretless bass during some of the Henley tunes.Mike found a fascination in the space between Randy Meisner’s notes on those old recordings and he adds a level of support to The Boys of Summer that is felt and heard.
