Description

Now in his 70s, rock legend Eric Clapton has blazed a singular trail in music history with more than his fair share of tragedy and heartbreak along the way. Often cited as one of the all-time great guitarists, Clapton lent his unique sound to The Yardbirds, Cream, Derek and the Dominos as well as producing a massive solo catalogue. With amazing footage of his performances throughout the years, Life in 12 Bars dives deep into his extraordinary music as well as his storied life and how he survived an onslaught of challenges. Featuring B.B. King, Jimi Hendrix, George Harrison and in depth interviews with the man himself.

Arrive early as we kick off the night with DJ Moe Berg and drink specials.
