CLEARLAKE OAKS, Calif. – Rock and Roll and Blues Hall of Famer Elvin Bishop and his Big Fun Trio will perform as part of the Cache Creek Vineyards Summer Concert Series in Clearlake Oaks on Saturday, Aug. 25.
Bishop and his trio – Bob Welsh on piano and guitar and Willy Jordan on cajón (a hand-played Peruvian drumbox) and vocals – will celebrate the release of their new Alligator Records album, “Something Smells Funky ‘Round Here.”
The music is rootsy, spirited, humorous and soulful, performed by serious musicians hell-bent on having a good time.
Bishop, a natural storyteller, is as slyly good-humored and instantly crowd-pleasing as he was when he was scoring Southern rock-styled hits during the 1970s or cutting award-winning blues albums over the last 30 years.
For five decades, he has never stopped touring or releasing instantly recognizable music featuring his groundbreaking playing, easygoing vocals, and
witty lyrics.
Doors open at 6 p.m. at the winery, 250 New Long Valley Road.
Tickets range from $25 to $80.
