Share

Eric Clapton will release a live album and concert film chronicling the 2023 Crossroads Guitar Festival, a star-studded event that marked the festival’s return after a four-year hiatus.

Held at the Crypto.com Arena in Los Angeles, the two-day event (Sept. 23 and 23) featured a diverse lineup of guitarists curated by Clapton, himself. Performers included blues veterans Joe Bonamassa and Santana, rock veterans like Sheryl Crow and John Mayer, rising stars such as Christone “Kingfish” Ingram, hybrid blues act Gary Clark Jr., and even folk-rock pioneer Roger McGuinn.

The festival, known for showcasing a range of musical styles, saw the artists collaborate on blues staples, American classics, and rock anthems. Fans can experience the sounds and flavors of the festival when Eric Clapton’s Crossroads Guitar Festival 2023 comes out on November 29. released. The release will be available in various formats, including a 4CD/2Blu-Ray set, 6LP vinyl box set, 2DVD set, and digital streaming with a Dolby Atmos mix.

The 2023 Crossroads Guitar Festival was the seventh celebration of a tradition that began in 1999 in New York City. Subsequent iterations were held in Dallas, Bridgewater, and New York before returning to Dallas in 2019. Proceeds from all the benefit shows have gone to the Crossroads Centre Antigua, a treatment center for substance abuse founded by Clapton.
