A singer, songwriter and multi-instrumentalist, Eliot Lewis has toured the world over as a member of the Daryl Hall & John Oates band, as well as a former member of The Average White Band. Eliot has also been the only musician to appear on every episode of Daryl Hall's popular, "Live From Daryl's House” show all while keeping his own solo career going at a seemingly impossible pace. Over the course of his career he has worked with the music business' elite including, Billy Gibbons (ZZ Top), Joe Walsh, Sammy Hagar, Todd Rundgren,Train, Cheap Trick, Grace Potter,  Squeeze, Rob Thomas,  Jason Mraz, Darius Rucker, Gavin DeGraw and many, many others. Having mastered four instruments over the course of his career; guitar, keyboard, bass and drums, Eliot's shows will find him moving from one instrument to another. Equally at home in front of 100 or 15,000, Eliot has performed on the worlds most legendary stages, including Madison Square Garden, Japan's Budokan, Red Rocks, The Hollywood Bowl, Carnegie Hall as well as Late Night with Jimmy Fallon, Conan O'Brien, The Today Show, Jimmy Kimmel Live and many others. Eliot has carved out his own distinctive musical brand and sonic landscape and has written, performed and produced ten solo releases. There are many who shaped Eliot's music and writing. As a guitar player, definitely Jeff Beck who I've been listening to all my life, as well as Billy Gibbons who I had the great fortune of working with recently, and Peter Frampton who I actually jammed with when I was 14 yrs old. I had the amazing experience of meeting and seeing many influential artists when I was a kid mainly at Madison Square Garden in New York City. To Purchase tickets to the Limited Seating WESTPORT, CT show click on linkhttps://www.ticketleap.events/tickets/wwweliotlewiscom/eliot-lewis-live-in-westport-ct-444213059 For more on Eliot's tour log onto the website link belowhttps://eliotlewis.com/shows

Rock royalty took over Sydney! In this episode of Triple M Gig Reviews, Row recaps an electrifying night at ICC Sydney Theatre as ZZ Top brought their Texas blues swagger Down Under on May 13, 2025. With George Thorogood & The Destroyers in tow as the perfect warm-up act, the night was a masterclass in grit, groove, and guitar. From Thorogood’s rowdy renditions of Who Do You Love and Bad to the Bone, to Billy Gibbons and Elwood Francis lighting up the stage with Got Me Under Pressure, Gimme All Your Lovin’, and Sharp Dressed Man, it was wall-to-wall classics. Elwood Francis stepped up to honour Dusty Hill’s legacy on bass with serious style and serious beard, while John Douglas filled in on drums for Frank Beard with rock-solid precision. The night wrapped with an explosive performance of La Grange, leaving the crowd howling for more. It’s been over 50 years, but ZZ Top still proves they’ve got that old-school swagger — no gimmicks, no fluff, just vintage Texas rock at its finest. If you missed it, this gig review is your backstage pass to one of the coolest shows of the year.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

This week on Time Signatures with Jim Ervin, join Erv as he ‘travels' to Clarksdale, Mississippi for a fun chat with another legendary Bluesman, Deak Harp. Deak traveled up and down the east coast in his early life, following the James Cotton Band and that dedication turned into an opportunity to drive Cotton's bus. But it also allowed Deak to get to know James on a personal level, and ultimately he got a chance to be on stage with him. These days, you will find Deak working at his world famous ‘Deak's Mississippi Saxophone & Blues Emporium', where he performs custom builds on Hohner Harmonicas. Oh, and if you do drop in to 13 3rd Street, ya just might run into the likes of Charlie Musselwhite, Billy Gibbons of ZZ Top fame, or a host of other incredible harmonicists who just drop by for a chat and some music.

I went to Roberto Venn School of Luthiery in 1997. Worked at Vince's Backstage music in Lafayette, La. until 2000. I then moved to the Hamptons, which was a mistake for my career. Ended up working other jobs, as well as repair to pay the bills. 2002 Moved to Nashville and ended up working for a company in Franklin that did factory refurbishments and Warranty repairs.

This guest has reignited my love for the blues. Meet Boone Froggett from Otis. Boone is the guitarist, singer, and founding member of the band. We get disconnected a couple of times in the beginning, but we push through and have a wonderful conversation.He grew up in the same town as The Kentucky Headhunters. That band was hugely influential, not just musically, but attitudinally, if that's a word. They showed Boone that you could be successful without moving to L.A. or Nashville. We talk about how he grew up performing, learning drums, guitar, singing, and sitar. When Otis formed, they decided to do things their way. They stayed at home, played what they wanted, like their debut album, which is a tribute album that Billy Gibbons bootlegged to give to people like Buddy Guy and Jeff Beck. Boone is also a cancer survivor. He opens up about what he went through and how he's doing now. The band has released a couple of top notch singles and are poised to release more new music soon. And hopefully they'll be hitting the road, too. So follow Otis @otisbandofficial on Instagram and they're on Facebook. Check out theotisband.com for all their links.

Introducing the Band:Your hosts Scot Bertram (@ScotBertram) and Jeff Blehar (@EsotericCD) are with guest Andrew Fink. Andrew lives with his wife Lauren and their five children in Hillsdale County, Mich., and is an attorney, Marine veteran, current state representative, and candidate for Michigan Supreme Court. He's on X at @AndrewFinkMI, and his website can be found here.Andrew's Music Pick: ZZ TopNo matter how far into the future this show might run, when you stack Political Beats episodes alphabetically, this is the one that always will show up at the bottom. Ladies and gentlemen, it's time to turn the spotlight on "That Little Ol' Band from Texas," ZZ Top. Billy Gibbons, Dusty Hill, Frank Beard. Blues, guitars, and boogie. And, of course, later on, synths, drum machines, and sequencers.Maybe you're like Jeff and your mental picture of ZZ Top is frozen in time around 1983, when Eliminator was soaring near the top of the charts. We're here to tell you you're missing an awful lot from the band. The entire decade of the 1970s featured album after album of incredible music. There's seriously never a misstep. Early on, you can hear the influence of and influence on other bands like The Allman Brothers and Lynyrd Skynyrd. ZZ Top figures out early exactly who they are as a band and refine, refine, refine until perfecting it (we think) on 1979's Degüello. Billy Gibbons, the group's main songwriter, singer, and guitar player, has a style all his own, a unique approach that cuts through each song, even when he's incorporating the sound of another player.At the turn of the decade of the 1980s, the band makes what we consider to be a fairly natural evolution. The tones, beats, and rhythms on Eliminator might seem out of place in a vacuum, but not if you follow the contours of the band's career. Post-worldwide fame and success is a different story, and one we also tell during the course of this episode. By the way, this is the longest one-part show in Political Beats history, surpassing the U2 show, which actually makes some sense. The feeling here was we wouldn't go quite so long -- otherwise we would have split the thing in half! But once we got going, there was too much fun being had and too many good arguments being made to stop. All for the benefit of you, the listener.They're bad, they're nationwide. And now's the time to discover the full story of ZZ Top on Political Beats.
