Overview

Featuring three of the most respected guitarists in American roots music, this all-star ensemble unites G.E. Smith, Larry Campbell, and Jim Weider for a powerhouse evening of blues, rock, and soul. Performing music spanning Roy Buchanan, Sam Cooke, Bo Diddley, and The Rolling Stones, the group blends deep tradition with masterful musicianship. They are joined by Lincoln Schleifer (bass) and Josh Dion (drums/vocals).

Emmy Award-winner G.E. Smith, longtime Saturday Night Live musical director, has toured with Bob Dylan and Roger Waters and collaborated with artists from Mick Jagger to David Bowie. Three-time Grammy winner Larry Campbell, former member of Bob Dylan?s band and music director for Levon Helm, is a highly sought-after multi-instrumentalist and Americana Music Association honoree. Jim Weider, acclaimed for his tenure with The Band, is a Fender-endorsed guitarist known for his signature Telecaster sound.
