 rtsboston.org/event/detail/441652365/Little_Feat_Leon_Russell\nEvent Date 
 Begin: 2012-11-07\nEvent Date End: 2012-11-07\n\nSince their formation in 
 1969\, Little Feat's unconventional signature of earthy\, organic appeal a
 nd polished\, first-rate musicianship wrapped around eclectic and memorabl
 e songs--clearly delivered as an authentic labor of love--has been a lasti
 ng fixture on the musical landscape. As American as apple pie--and rock 'n
  roll itself--Feat's music transcends boundaries\, a freewheeling fusion o
 f California rock and Dixie-inflected funk-boogie. In the mix as well are 
 strains of folk\, blues\, rockabilly\, country and jazz\, inventing a hybr
 id sound that is truly Little Feat's own.  That story is about to add a ma
 jor new chapter &ndash\; the 2008 release of Join the Band\, a very specia
 l project in Feat's history which features major Little Feat hit songs as 
 played by a band that included Feat and some very special friends. When yo
 u have friends like Jimmy Buffett\, Dave Matthews\, Emmylou Harris\, Bob S
 eger\, Bela Fleck\, Brooks and Dunn\, Chris Robinson (Black Crowes)\, Vinc
 e Gill\, Mike Gordon (Phish)\, and Inara George (band founder Lowell's dau
 ghter) &ndash\; you have musical treasure in your hands.\nLeon Russell is 
 a music legend and perhaps the most accomplished and versatile musician in
  the history of rock 'n roll. In his distinguished and unique 50 year care
 er\, he has played on\, arranged\, written and/or produced some of the bes
 t records in popular music.  As a session musician\, arranger\, producer\,
  singer\, songwriter\, pianist\, guitarist\, record company owner\, bandle
 ader\, and touring musician\, he has collaborated with hundreds of artists
 /groups\, including Glen Campbell\, Willie Nelson\, Eric Clapton\, Bob Dyl
 an\, Ringo Starr\, John Lennon\, J.J. Cale\, B.B. King\, Freddie King\, Ba
 rbra Streisand\, Ike & Tina Turner\, Frank Sinatra\, Aretha Franklin\, Dea
 n Martin\, Marvin Gaye\, The Monkees\, The Beach Boys\, The Rolling Stones
  and on and on and on.  Leon continues to write songs\, record\, and thril
 l audiences on his non-stop tour across the U.S.  Current members of Leon'
 s band include: Jackie Wessel\, Bass\; Chris Simmons\, Guitar\; Beau Charr
 on\, Keyboards\, Lap Steel Guitar\, and Mandolin\; and Brandon Holder\, Dr
 ums.\n
