Our Live Music Capital of the World hosted a collective of legendary guitarists for the seventh edition of Eric Clapton’s Crossroads Guitar Festival. The festival marked the 28th anniversary of the 1998 founding of Crossroads Centre Antigua, Clapton’s treatment and education facility for people affected by chemical dependency. All profits from the festival benefit the organization. Some Crossroads veterans playing are Tedeschi Trucks Band, Gary Clark Jr., Buddy Guy, John Mayer, and Jimmie Vaughan, while Trey Anastasio, Tommy Emmanuel, Julian Lage and Pete Townshend will be making their Crossroads debuts.
