Eagles & Friends: Unplugged
Scott Coulter, vocalist
John Boswell, piano and vocalist
Paul Shewchuk, bass
Settle into the easygoing West Coast sound of the 1970s as signature harmonies, soaring guitar attacks and unforgettable hooks fill Daniels Pavilion. This unplugged-style tribute draws on the Eagles’ rich catalog and the music of friends and contemporaries who helped fashion the era’s smooth, sunlit blend of rock, country and folk. From Hotel California and Take It Easy to many more familiar favorites, the evening revisits songs built for close listening, shared memories and the kind of choruses that still invite everyone to sing along.
