‘OUR TRIBUTE TO ERIC CLAPTON’
This show will take you on a journey through the decades of Eric Clapton’s music career, starting with his first band ‘The Yardbirds’ in 1964 up to present day, with 19 upcoming concerts touring across three countries at the age of 78 years old.
With his 70th Birthday Concerts, Eric Clapton was the first guitarist to reach 200 solo performances at the Royal Albert Hall and 45 appearances at Madison Square Garden, the most of any U.S. venue.
Clapton has had a life of triumph and tragedy both musically and personally which fuelled a desire to help others with addictions. He founded Crossroads Centre Antigua in 1997 to help individuals in the Caribbean and around the world recover from alcohol and drug dependencies. To support its work, he sold his most treasured guitars, raising over $12 million for the Foundation and organized a concert and four Crossroads Guitar Festivals.
Leading the top team of Durban showband ‘The Reals’ is maestro front man Barry Thomson on guitar and vocals, Musical Director Dawn Selby on keyboards and vocals, Mali Sewell on drums, Andy Turrell on bass guitar and guest Colin Peddie on guitar and vocals.
Featuring songs including ‘Layla’, ‘Sunshine Of Your Love’, ‘Bell Bottom Blues’, ‘I Shot The Sheriff’, ‘Wonderful Tonight’, ‘Change The World’, ‘Bad Love’, ‘Tears In Heaven’ and ‘Crossroads’, expect to hear Clapton’s top hits and varying guitar styles throughout his illustrious career.
