Few guitarists changed the course of modern music like Jeff Beck. This January, some of the West Coast’s finest musicians come together at Sweetwater Music hall to honor his extraordinary legacy — from blues-rock classics to jazz fusion masterpieces and everything in between.
Now in its fifth year, this tribute has become one of Northern California’s premier events celebrating Beck’s artistry, featuring soaring guitar solos, powerhouse vocals, and the spontaneous musical interaction that made his live performances legendary.
This year’s lineup is headlined by legendary bassist Stu Hamm (Steve Vai, Joe Satriani), acclaimed guitarist Alex Skolnick (Testament), and guitarist/music director Eric Barnett (Points North), joined by an all-star cast including Travis Larson (Travis Larson Band), Mike Vanderhule (Y&T), Frank Martin (Sting/Whitney Houston/Narada Michael Walden), Darby Gould (ex-Jefferson Starship/Big Brother & the Holding Company), Jules Leyhe, Danny Jones, Farida Nelson, Tara Rae (Ragdolls), Shane Barnett, and special guest Marin County’s own Josh Zee (Protein, The Mother Truckers) — musicians whose combined careers span world tours, platinum recordings, and collaborations with some of music’s biggest names.
Don’t miss this unforgettable evening celebrating one of rock’s greatest guitar innovators.
