GCS featuring ERIC GALES, DENNIS CHAMBERS and BILLY SHEEHAN

About this event

GCS brings together three of the most electrifying musicians in modern music: two time Grammy nominated guitarist and vocalist Eric Gales, Modern Drummer Hall of Fame drummer Dennis Chambers, and five time Best Rock Bass Player Billy Sheehan. Each of these musicians has spent decades performing at the highest levels of blues, rock, funk, jazz fusion, soul, and progressive music. Together, they form a rare lineup where every player can lead, listen, and push the music into new territory. The sound of GCS won’t be confined to one category. It will draw from the full range of their musical lives, moving from heavy blues and hard rock to deep funk, soul, and jazz fusion, with room for fearless improvisation and the kind of live interplay that only players of this caliber can deliver.
