Clifton Opera House, Saturday

Slowhand

The Clifton Opera House is in for a very special treat on Saturday, April 9th. Dayton's own Slowhand Band will perform a special Acoustic night of Clapton music from 7:30pm - 9:30pm. Box office opens at 6:30pm. Everyone has at least one favorite Eric Clapton song and Rick Bailey does them all! He looks and sounds like Clapton!

Slowhand was formed in 1994 in Fairborn, Ohio. The name of the group came from the 1977 album Slowhand, and is also the nickname made famous by Eric Clapton. Rick Bailey, who performs the role of Eric Clapton as Lead Guitarist/Lead Vocalist, has long been influenced by Eric Clapton. This passion led to the formation of Slowhand.

Seeking out a musical group to establish this Eric Clapton Tribute, Rick recruited four outstanding musicians who could also provide the harmony vocals to make this show sound authentic. These musicians consist of Ray on Keyboards & Vocals, Daniel on Guitar & Vocals, Kevin on Drums, Percussion & Vocals, and Don on Bass Guitar & Vocals.

From the look, the specially painted guitars, to the entertaining song selection, every detail is covered in this family friendly show. As quoted by fans, the only thing missing is the cigarette! Slowhand is a MUST SEE show for all music fans, and especially for every Eric Clapton Fan! www.slowhandband.com.
