About the band
Elite is a Fort Worth Deftones tribute that has been playing since 2017. The band works on both sides of the music: the heavy riffs and the quieter, atmospheric passages that make Deftones sound like Deftones. Elite has played O’Shea’s in Hurst, Granada Theater in Dallas and other Texas stages. It’s a show for longtime fans and anyone who wants to hear what they’ve been missing.
Fort Worth, since 2017
A local tribute with years of playing Deftones together.
