Now continuing on the funk train, Shorty is backed by his band Orleans Avenue on tour, a collective of stunningly accomplished players. For lovers of music you can move to, this is a tour you will not want to miss!

Jon Batiste at Santa Barbara Bowl

Jon Batiste

The recipient of a breathtaking 11 2022 Grammy Award nominations and four wins, including Album of the Year, and four more noms for 2023, Jon Batiste is one incredible musician. You might recognize him from his tenure as Stephen Colbert's magnanimous bandleader or have heard his Oscar-winning score for Pixar's Soul (with Trent Reznor and Atticus Ross), or from enjoying his March 2021 record, We Are, or even with one of his genre-straddling collaborations with the likes of Stevie Wonder, Prince, Willy Nelson and more. What we're saying is the time has come for the socially conscious, eclectic artist, pianist, singer, and composer. Catch him as he steps into the spotlight on his first ever headlining tour in 2024, titled the 'Uneasy Tour: Purifying the Airwaves for the People'.

Gary Clark Jr. at Santa Barbara Bowl

Gary Clark Jr.

Grammy-award winner Gary Clark Jr. is hitting the road this summer in support of his forthcoming album 'JPEG RAW'! As one of the country's biggest stars in rock, jazz, country and soul, this phenomenally talented musician heads out on a brand new tour, showing exactly why the likes of Alicia Keys, the Rolling Stones and Foo Fighters are singing his praises as well as having him support their live shows.

John Fogerty at Santa Barbara Bowl

John Fogerty

Founder member of Creedence Clearwater Revival, John Fogerty's unmistakable growl was a staple of American radio during the 60s, on tracks like Bad Moon Rising, Proud Mary and the anti-Vietnam war anthem Fortunate Son. Selling millions of records worldwide, the group disbanded in 1970, at which point Fogerty pursued a highly successful solo career, penning hits including Old Man Down the River and Rockin' All Over the World (later made famous by Status Quo).
