JJ Cale
JJ Cale is embarking on his first set of live dates since 2004, following the release of his first solo CD of new material in
nearly five years, Roll On (February 24, 2009 release on Rounder Records). Roll On follows Cale’s Grammy-winning,
gold-certified 2006 album with Eric Clapton, The Road to Escondido. The title track features a previously unreleased
collaboration with Clapton. Cale wrote and produced all twelve songs on Roll On.
JJ Cale's influence on contemporary music has been massive. Two of Eric Clapton's biggest hits, “After Midnight”
and “Cocaine,” were written by JJ Cale. Lynyrd Skynyrd was also well served by JJ Cale songs including “Call Me
The Breeze” and "Bringing It Back."
A small sampling of artists who’ve covered Cale include Johnny Cash, The Band, Chet Atkins, Captain Beefheart,
Santana and The Allman Brothers, while Mark Knopfler, Neil Young, and Bryan Ferry have all cited his influence. JJ
Cale has also had a significant impact on a younger generation of artists who have covered his songs in recent years
including Spiritualized, Beck, Band Of Horses, Widespread Panic and moe
