CLAPTONATION is a musical tribute to the music of Grammy award winning singer, guitarist and songwriter, Eric Clapton, performing songs from throughout his storied career from 1965 to present—an illustrious career—featuring rock guitar virtuoso, Jack Juraska.
Eric played around Surrey with the likes of The Roosters and Casey Jones & The Engineers, but in October of 1963, he joined The Yardbirds and the rest is truly Rock & Roll history. He later performed with John Mayall and the The Bluesbreakers, Cream, Blind Faith, Delaney and Bonnie and Friends, finally heading up Derek & The Dominos. After that, his solo career became legendary. Eric is still one of the most respected guitarist/singer/songwriters in the world. Could the infamous graffito “Clapton is God” be true?
CLAPTONATION is certainly a tribute to this artist’s greatness, but the primary objective is to historically showcase the music he created both in a solo format and while collaborating with others. CLAPTONATION uses no prerecorded music while performing. The aim is to deliver not only the structure, but the spontaneity and emotion that is the musical legacy of Eric Patrick Clapton.
