Saved by the 90s on Tour
There's nothing quite like getting into a room with a bunch of your friends to belt out hits you know inside out. Enter Saved by the 90s, a party-starting rock and pop cover band that focuses on the decade when grunge, teen-pop and alternative rock dominated. The high-energy troupe sport colorful outfits and perform faithful renditions of jams from Third Eye Blind, Foo Fighters, Sum 41 and blink-182, among others — and, thanks to a rotating cast of female vocalists, smashes from No Doubt, Garbage and Spice Girls are also in play.
In previous years, while going by the name Bayside Tigers — the moniker references the sports teams at fictional Bayside High of '90s TV show Saved by the Bell — the band performed all over the country, including at multiple House of Blues locations. Today, calling themselves Saved by the 90s, the group continues to maintain a healthy touring schedule. Plus, you never know who might show up at a gig. In the past, rappers Coolio and Naughty by Nature, Sugar Ray frontman Mark McGrath and the late Cranberries singer Dolores O'Riordan have all sat in with the band.
Saved by the 90s in Concert
Saved by the 90s was started in the late '00s by a trio of friends: guitarist/singer Danny Finerman, bassist/vocalist Alex Rossiter and drummer/singer Nat Esten. The latter two were classmates at Berklee College of Music and had started noticing as they gigged around that their audience especially dug '90s covers by acts such as Green Day and Foo Fighters. Finerman had also sensed that the decade's music was due for a resurgence, and so the concept of Saved by the 90s was born.
The group started playing out in New York City, first as a live-band karaoke project and then just a straightforward cover band. Sold-out club shows followed, as did a nationwide expansion; today, there are multiple Saved by the 90s bands performing throughout the country, all with extensive, 100+ song repertoires. Notable members include vocalist Emily Afton, who has been on Broadway and in touring theater productions.

The HOB venue is great. The Parish was a nice size for this event, but be prepared to stand on concrete for 4 hours. Tickets said the show starts at 7... but we were just ushered into the venue and waited 2 hours for it to begin. DJ played some music starting at around 8, but the band didn't play until 9. The two hours of music was total nostalgia- great hits from the 90s that everyone could sing along to. I loved the format; I wouldn't say I liked the timing. Would I see them again? Yes. Would I arrive at 7? Probably not. PS. Wear comfy shoes.
This is my 3rd time seeing them & loved it all over again!
Great song line up, great energy will always return for the next show!!
Great love bank and DJ mix! Would go again if they come back to town.
Great cover band had amazing 99s songs to sing along to
We have seen this show 3 times. This time we were disappointed. It was just ok. We prefer bands such as Stereo FM, Leonard Brothers…
I’ve seen this band a few times a few years ago. This was a completely different group of people and weren’t nearly as good. Especially the lead singer. She had no energy and wasn’t exciting. I get she’s pregnant, but if you can’t perform, don’t tour. Disappointed and so were my friends I brought with me
Did a fantastic show. There was one random song that I had no clue about. The rest of the hours were filled with nostalgia and great music. The crowd was fun. The band was pumped up and kept everyone dancing and singing along. Thanks!
The songs they sang were good but the set list was lacking! How do you have a 90’s show and not include Nirvana, Beastie Boys or Pearl Jam (to name a few)??? I suggest they don’t play the entire song either: if they only played half of each song, they could double the titles played.
We had a great time. The band played all the good songs.
A friend invited me along to see this band. I had 0 expectations, and honestly it was one of the most fun evenings I’ve had in a while. The band sounded great, and covered almost every genre of 90’s music. They played all upbeat fun songs, and the vibe was incredible. I will definitely see them again next time they are around!
The band brings the energy every time we see them. Great mix of songs and party atmosphere for our group. Can’t wait for the next show!
This night operated like a time machine journeying the crowd through singing songs that reminds us of the good times and songs that reminds us of the best times! Saved by the 90s made us chase Waterfalls and live life Plastic Fantastic because we Wanted it That Way. I was amazed that a lot of people gathered together for this event, reliving nostalgia at its best from styling, jamming, and even cosplaying! The best part? Every song covered was done rock style, even the hip hop ones, and there was birthday cake! 10/10! You oughtta know that man! I feel like a 90s baby!
They played every single song that got me through the 90s
This band was incredible! Loved the variety of 90s. They're very talented musicians.
This concert was so much fun!!!! If you were listening to music in the 90's. You will absolutely love this!!
Band was ok the woman singer and the drummer were by far the best part of this show. Hard rock Casino was not prepared 30 minutes in line for drinks no coat check on a winter night no where to put you coat when dancing C+
I see this band every time they come to the HOB in Orlando, I love singing and dancing to all of the songs from the 90s! They really know how to get the crowd on their feet and engaged in the show! My friends and I make it a girls night and we never miss Saved by the 90s! Keep up the great work guys, you rock!
These guys were great and had the crowd rocking all night. I had never seen them before, and frankly, wasn't expecting a high energy show. But that's how it turned out. Great song selection, excellent vocalists and musicians. Wish they would return soon.
