The 2013 edition of Eric Clapton’s Crossroads Guitar Festival is coming to U.S. theaters for one night-only on August 13.
Captured across two nights at Madison Square Garden, the Crossroads Guitar Festival features a variety of legendary guitarists – including Eric Clapton, Keith Richards, Vince Gill, Buddy Guy, John Mayer, Keith Urban and more – performing a mix of sultry blues, classic rock and country jams.
While Madison Square Garden is an epic arena, the concert remains intimate as Clapton and others collaborate on a sampling of the greatest hits of their careers.
Held to benefit Crossroads Centre, a drug treatment and education facility in Antigua founded by Clapton, each concert has become a jam session of Clapton’s closest friends and music’s biggest stars – where anything can unfold onstage. The 2013 event welcomed an impromptu visit from Keith Richards.
In addition to legendary guitar performances, cinema audiences will be treated to exclusive behind-the-scenes footage from this year’s festival.
