Back to Clapton roots

The Claptomaniacs are going back to visit their Eric Slowhand Clapton roots from where the band started in 2014 – for one night only – at Pomona’s Majestic Theatre.

While The Claptomaniacs have since become a fixture in the Noosa area club and private party circuits with a broad repertoire of ’60s to ’80s dance music, they always revel in the chance to jump back into Clapton mode – that’s where the band’s name came from, after all – stealing … well, borrowing … Clapton’s songbook.

This special concert at the fabulously acoustic Majestic on Saturday 23 July, will feature wall-to-wall Clapton classics from his chapters with the Yardbirds, Cream, Derek and the Dominoes, Blind Faith and much of his solo work.

Tickets available ($30/$25 concession). Call the theatre on 5485 2330 or visit themajestictheatre.com.au for more details.

And the band will tell you why Eric’s known as Slowhand when you get there.
