NightBird SWFL-The Ultimate Tribute to Stevie Nicks is a 7-piece orchestrated dynamic band featuring Angela Chang.  They are based out of Southwest Florida and pay tribute to the one and only Stevie Nicks. NightBird covers songs from Stevie Nicks early career with Fleetwood Mac into her solo career as an artist. This incredible band is known for their authenticity, as Angela delivers Stevie Nicks’ music from the depths of her soul–captivating the audience and creating a moving experience for everyone. NightBird SWFL- The Ultimate Tribute to Stevie Nicks, is different than that of a Fleetwood Mac tribute since they concentrate primarily on Stevie Nicks and play many different songs during her entire career. They take their audience through the 1970’s into the 80’s and 90’s. Says Angela Chang, lead singer, “We celebrate her as she is the only woman who has been inducted twice into the Rock-n-Roll Hall of Fame!” If you’re looking for a show packed with high energy, smooth harmonies and heavy percussion sound…. NIGHTBIRD will deliver!! Reviews from past patrons include: Alan B. – This event  was a TEN STAR!!! The band was awesome, they sounded terrific, and they were really entertaining to watch.Rona B. – Loved the Stevie Nicks show!!!
