Members of the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame and Grammy recipients Jorma Kaukonen and Jack Casady, were at the forefront of popular rock and roll, founders of the San Francisco sound and progenitors of Psychedelic Rock. For over 50 years they have continued to play dynamic original music as Hot Tuna! The dynamics of their music feels alive in the present and alive on a continuum from the moment the music percolates in their minds to the time it explodes into the theatre. When Acoustic, the duo seems to speak a language of their own at once both intimate and forthright. When joined by the dynamic, three-time Grammy winner, drummer Justin Guip, Electric Hot Tuna is major force. Imagine something bigger and and more dynamic than the obvious, Hot Tuna in concert!
“It’s unfathomable how Jorma Kaukonen and Jack Casady make each show its own experience, but they do … and effortlessly! Guitarist Jorma Kaukonen and bassist Jack Casady are without question among the greatest musicians ever; each has distinguished himself by developing a style that is easy to pick out and that others often try to imitate.”
