Experience an extraordinary evening of live music as Rock & Roll Hall of Fame inductee and legendary guitarist Jeff “Skunk” Baxter takes the stage at The Alcazar Theatre in Carpinteria, just south of Santa Barbara.
A two-time Grammy Award winner, Baxter rose to fame as a founding member of Steely Dan and later as a member of The Doobie Brothers. His remarkable career includes collaborations with Elton John, Joni Mitchell, Ringo Starr and Cher. Known for his exceptional guitar work and versatility, Baxter will be joined by fellow musicians for a special performance spanning rock, country, blues and beyond.
Presented by the Sho-Bud Music Foundation, the evening offers a preview of the planned Sho-Bud Santa Barbara Guitar Festival, celebrating the musicians, instruments and innovations that helped shape American music.
The event will also introduce audiences to the foundation’s mission of preserving America’s musical heritage and expanding access to music. Building on the legacy of Sho-Bud, the Nashville-based company that revolutionized the pedal steel guitar, the foundation supports historic preservation, contemporary musicians and programs that make music accessible to individuals facing physical, developmental, emotional or financial challenges.
