Over the course of Beck’s illustrious 50-year career, the trailblazing guitarist has earned many accolades. He’s been inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame – twice! First, as a member of the Yardbirds in 1992 and then again, as a solo artist in 2009. Rolling Stone Magazine ranked him as one of the “100 Greatest Guitarists of All Time” and he has earned a total of eight Grammy Awards during his long career. In addition, Beck has been a guest performer at scores of sessions with everyone from Stevie Wonder and Buddy Guy to Tina Turner and Mick Jagger. Throughout his career, Beck routinely makes the fantastically difficult sound effortless.
Currently, Beck has been hard at work on his first book, focused on his twin inspirations - hot rodding and rock’n’roll - now bound together. The London-based Genesis Publishing Group plans to release BECK01, a high quality “signed, limited-edition” book, this year. In BECK01 Jeff Beck takes us on the journey of a lifetime. Over five decades, he has blazed a trail, forging a unique guitar style lauded by critics, fans and fellow guitar legends.
Beck will make a very special appearance at the Hollywood Bowl on August 10 to celebrate 50 years of ‘dynamic music making.’
Buddy Guy is a Rock and Roll Hall of Fame inductee, a major influence on rock titans like Jimi Hendrix, Eric Clapton, and Stevie Ray Vaughan, a pioneer of Chicago’s fabled West Side sound, and a living link to that city’s halcyon days of electric blues. He has received six Grammy Awards, 34 Blues Music Awards (the most any artist has received), the Billboard magazine Century Award for distinguished artistic achievement and the Presidential National Medal of Arts. Rolling Stone Magazine ranked him as one of the “100 Greatest Guitarists of All Time.” In 2012, he published his long-awaited memoir, When I Left Home. His latest studio album, Born to Play Guitar, earned him a 2016 Grammy Award for Best Blues Album. Guy will be celebrating his 80th birthday on July 30, when the tour visits Meadow Brook Amphitheatre in Rochester Hills, MI.
