Band Story
Larry Atello: Rock & Soul Royalty With a Vegas Swagger
“If Jon Bon Jovi and Diana Ross had a love child, it would be Larry Atello!” It’s a line that might raise eyebrows—until you see the man perform. Then it makes perfect sense.
Hailing straight out of Brooklyn, New York, Larry Atello has been lighting up stages and igniting hearts since 1983, carving out a singular space where rock & roll bravado meets soul-deep R&B finesse. From the first time he stepped onto a stage at New Utrecht High School’s chorus, Larry knew music wasn’t just a calling—it was his destiny.
He cut his teeth in the smoky, neon-lit cabaret clubs of New York, but it wasn’t long before his voice—equal parts velvet and voltage—drew him into the harder, louder, sweatier world of rock & roll. As the frontman of “Atello,” he recorded two punchy, emotionally-charged albums that showcased his vocal firepower and songwriting grit. But Larry’s story doesn’t stop at the edge of the stage—it keeps evolving.
In a move worthy of a showbiz novel, Larry packed up and headed west to the neon desert of Las Vegas, where he became a fan favorite in the long-running theatrical phenomenon Tony & Tina’s Wedding. For a solid decade, he brought laughter, charisma, and his unmistakable stage magnetism to thousands of fans night after night, honing his gift for not just singing, but owning a room.
But Atello’s roots in rock never withered. Whether fronting Bon Jovi tribute acts that bring down the house or leading high-voltage cover bands in Las Vegas and now in Palm Springs, California, Larry brings a swagger and soul that’s both timeless and electrifying. His voice can command an arena, but it's his R&B undertones—hints of Marvin Gaye, tinges of Teddy Pendergrass—that lend his performances a sensual grit and emotional authenticity.
And let’s not forget: the man is funny. With razor-sharp wit and impeccable comedic timing, Larry Atello doesn’t just perform—he entertains. He connects. He hosts the night like it’s his party, and you’re the VIP guest.
In an industry that’s often defined by fleeting fame, Larry Atello stands out as the real deal—an enduring performer who marries heart, humor, and sheer rock star heat. Whether he's belting out an '80s anthem or crooning a soul classic, Atello doesn't just hit the notes—he hits you in the soul.
