It seems it wasn’t just the Oscars worth watching with news of a huge live set from Elton John at his Oscars after party.

John, who announced his live retirement last month (read here) hosted his annual star studded Oscars after party to raise money and awareness for the Elton John Aids Foundation in West Hollywood and put on a huge performance.

The show saw John rock out with relatively unknown rock band Gretta Van Fleet.


The Michigan band jammed with John on piano and vocals, the band have been compared to Led Zeppelin by John himself according to Ultimate Classic Rock.

The young band, whose oldest member is the ripe age of 21 were obviously stoked with the gig!
