About
One of the few tribute bands endorsed by Eric Clapton himself, Cream of Clapton brings together family, friends, and former bandmates for a powerful celebration of his legendary music. Featuring Clapton’s longtime bassist Nathan East, his son Noah East, Will Johns (Clapton’s nephew), and Clapton’s former bandmate Steve Ferrone, this special performance recreates Clapton’s iconic MTV Unplugged set — the groundbreaking 1992 album that reimagined his greatest hits, earned six Grammy Awards, and became one of the best-selling live albums of all time. Expect an intimate evening of acoustic favorites like “Layla,” “Tears in Heaven,” and “Old Love,” all capturing the heart and soul of one of rock’s most celebrated artists.
