This giant, 18-person rock band brings you a fist in the air salute to all things rock and roll with the music of Queen, David Bowie, The Beatles, The Who and Led Zeppelin. The URO have made a name for themselves playing iconic rock mega-songs from the 1970's in arena-style shows. "The level of talent on display is immense," says the Noise - "the URO makes use of every musician and vocalist present to capture the most complex of these classic songs." The Boston Metro writes of the band - "Only a handful of bands are licensed to rock you that hard, and the Ultrasonic Rock Orchestra certainly has that license." ANATRO is an awe-inspiring night of high energy and over-the-top rock fun. "The spectacle on stage is more party than opera. The URO brings off even the most intricate of rock pieces with effortless ease, lighthearted humor, and an audacious display of vocal prowess," says the Boston Globe. The band performs songs by The Who, The Beatles, Bowie, and Queen, with a few selections from URO's original rock opera 'Will We Rock You?.' The Boston Herald says, "A Night At The Rock Opera is looking like a local institution in the making... a grandiose fist-in-the-air salute to all things rock."
"URO is a classic-rock repertoire company - the only one with this scope and ambition, with these precise harmonies and orchestration... They will - they will - rock you." - Boston Herald.
"This production has the gloss and energy of a Las Vegas show; you could call it "Rock and Roll: The Experience" and sell it as part of package vacations without risking offense to anyone." - EDGE Boston.
"URO takes those songs and extracts the most out of them, turning in pulverizing, thunderous renditions without making your ears bleed. It gave me goose-bumps because these are songs you rarely get to experience live, let alone in such thrilling fashion. " - Erie Times.
"An audacious display of vocal prowess." - Boston Globe.
"Bombastic? You bet. Rock Opera is one genre where that's a compliment." - Boston Phoenix.
"Glam-bam-thank-you-ma'am rocktastic thunder." - Boston Metro.
