Le d by Little Feat guitarist Scott Sharrard\, the 6-piece lineup consists of some of New York City’s finest musicians. The band takes its name from an obscure Little Feat jam from the early 1970s.\nSharrard describes Eldor ado Slim’s mix of 1970s instrumental covers as a blend of “acid funk a nd space spirituals”. The band takes their sound and repertoire from one of the richest chapters in American roots music history. Inspired by the consciousness expanding and hypnotic\, improvisational funk of the era\, m usic by artists like Grant Green\, Quincy Jones\, Jeff Beck\, Eddie Harris \, Lonnie Smith\, The Crusaders\, Cannonball Adderley\, King Curtis\, Chic o Hamilton and Stuff. Eldorado Slim also nods to Scott Sharrard’s work w ith Gregg Allman and Little Feat by occasionally doing their own instrumen tal interpretations and arrangements of tunes from those iconic rock and r oll songbooks.\nScott Sharrard is not only a member of Little Feat (since 2019) but was also the guitarist\, musical director and Grammy nominated s ongwriter and producer for the Gregg Allman band (from 2008 until Gregg’ s passing in 2017). Scott has been nominated for two Grammys and has relea sed six solo albums under his own name as a singer/songwriter.\nAlong with Sharrard’s distinct blues inflected soul guitar style\, Eldorado Slim ’s instrumentation is propelled forward by Latin percussion\, hammond B- 3 organ\, drums and a horn section. The band members include Bobby Allende \, Kyle Kohler\, Craig Dreyer\, Tony Leone and Reggie Pittman. The musical stew the band creates weaves between acid jazz and acid rock\, with a con stant grasp on the relentless pulse of rhythm &\; blues and some occasi onal post bop improvisation. In the chaos of our modern times\, Eldorado S lim harkens back to a groovier time and an analog solution. In the words o f the great Maceo Parker\, the band plays “2% jazz and 98% funky stuff. ”\nScott Sharrard ~ GuitarKyle Koehler~ OrganTony Leone Drums\nBobby All ende-PercussionReggie Pittman- TrumpetCraig Dreyer ~ Sax\nhttp://www.scott sharrard.com/ ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://kingstonhappenings.org/wp-content/upload s/2025/08/522111249_1380956133829945_4364385621695555595_n.jpg CATEGORIES:@Featured,@Newsletter,Music,Nightlife and entertainment LOCATION:Colony Woodstock NY\, 22 Rock City Rd\, Woodstock\, New York\, Uni ted States GEO:42.0424924;-74.11799489999999 X-APPLE-STRUCTURED-LOCATION;VALUE=URI;X-ADDRESS=22 Rock City Rd\, Woodstock \, New York\, United States;X-APPLE-RADIUS=100;X-TITLE=Colony Woodstock NY :geo:42.0424924,-74.11799489999999 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VTIMEZONE TZID:America/New_York X-LIC-LOCATION:America/New_York BEGIN:DAYLIGHT DTSTART:20250309T030000 TZOFFSETFROM:-0500 TZOFFSETTO:-0400 TZNAME:EDT END:DAYLIGHT END:VTIMEZONE END:VCALENDAR
