Riding With The King | The Music of Eric Clapton

Saturday, January 3rd @ 7:30 p.m.

The second show of Reshaped: A weekend of jazz-rock alchemy! What is Reshaped? Two nights of reimagined blues and rock classics, where jazz meets groove and fusion takes center stage. Join guitarists Honza Kourimsky and Troy Chapman and guests for a weekend celebrating the music of Eric Clapton and J.J. Cale —reinterpreted with improvisation, rhythm, and soulful energy.

Czech guitarist and composer Honza Kourimsky brings his fusion project Riding With The King to Whidbey Island, an electrifying reinterpretation of Eric Clapton’s legendary catalog through the lens of jazz, funk, and soul.

Kourimsky is a previous Scottish Jazz Awards and Peter Whittingham Jazz Award nominee whose work has been featured on BBC Radio 3, Jazz FM, and RFI France.

He is joined by an outstanding ensemble of local and regional talent: Keegan Harshman (bass), Roy Gabelein (drums), Grant Neubauer (piano), and Seattle saxophone legend Alex Dugdale, recipient of multiple Earshot Jazz Awards.

Special guests include violinist Gloria Ferry-Brennan, violist Marena Salerno Collins, vocalist Audrey Stangland, and guitarist Troy Chapman.

Together, this powerhouse lineup blends expressive solos, lush harmonies, and groove-driven energy to honor Clapton’s timeless music in a bold, contemporary style.
