Description

Eldorado Slim is a NYC-based band led by Little Feat guitarist Scott Sharrard, blending 1970s instrumental funk with spacey, improvisational grooves. The six-piece lineup features top New York musicians, drawing inspiration from artists like Grant Green, Eddie Harris, Lonnie Smith, and Cannonball Adderley. The band’s sound is described as a mix of acid funk and space spirituals, with occasional instrumental interpretations of tunes from Sharrard’s work with Gregg Allman and Little Feat. Eldorado Slim’s lineup includes Latin percussion, Hammond B-3 organ, horns, and a rhythm section, creating a dynamic fusion of acid jazz, rock, and R&B. Sharrard, a Grammy-nominated guitarist and former musical director for the Gregg Allman Band, leads the band with his distinct blues-inflected guitar style. Eldorado Slim?s music evokes the groovy, analog vibe of the ’70s, mixing jazz with funky stuff, as described by Maceo Parker.
