🎸 Eric Clapton Unplugged & Hits – A Soulful Tribute by Matt Arthur & The Lazybones

📅 Friday 10th October | Flamingos Live

Step into the world of acoustic brilliance as Matt Arthur & The Lazybones pay tribute to Eric Clapton’s Unplugged — the best-selling live album of all time. Featuring moving renditions of “Tears In Heaven,” “Layla,” and more, this show is a must-see for Clapton devotees and acoustic music lovers alike.

🌟 One Night, One Guitar, Endless Emotion

The album that re-invented acoustic blues—Eric Clapton’s Unplugged—comes alive again in the Eric Clapton Unplugged tribute by Matt Arthur & The Lazybones. From the first warm chord you’ll feel the hush, the heartbeat, the storytelling that made 26 million people buy a live record.

🎶 “Tears in Heaven”, “Layla” & Hidden Gems

Matt Arthur’s honey-rough vocal slides straight into Clapton territory, then makes it personal. Hear “Running on Faith,” “Old Love,” “Nobody Knows You When You’re Down and Out,” plus the electric-era hits re-imagined: “Wonderful Tonight,” “Cocaine,” and “Bad Love.” Every tune drips with blues authenticity.

🪕 Matt Arthur – A Voice Built for Clapton

Raised on dusty NSW stages, Matt spent years perfecting slow-hand phrasing and open-string sparkle. His recent album Then & Now proves he can write his own stories, but tonight he’s the curator of Clapton’s. Close your eyes—you’ll swear you’re at Bray Studios, 1992.

🎹 The Lazybones – Small Band, Huge Feel

  • Sam McNally (keys – John Farnham, Stylus): fluid piano and B-3 swells

  • Michael Vidale (bass – Jimmy Little, Slim Dusty): pocket so deep you’ll lose yourself

  • Dave Egan (drums – Richard Clapton band): brushes that whisper, snare that weeps

Together they serve the songs, never the ego, just like Clapton’s original trio.

🔥 Beyond Unplugged – Electric Flares Included

After the acoustic set, the band plugs in for a bonus hit-parade finale. Strats howl, wah pedals cry, and “Sunshine of Your Love” reminds you Slowhand could still melt faces.

💌 Why You’ll Feel It in Your Chest

The intimacy of Unplugged. The fire of a club gig. And that moment when a roomful of strangers sings “Tears in Heaven” in one soft voice. Streaming can’t touch it; only live can.
