GRAMMY Museum Announces Online Chat With Leland Sklar and The Immediate Family

The Immediate Family

Leland Sklar and The Immediate Family will be featured in a live online conversation hosted by the GRAMMY Museum this Thursday, July 9th at 4pm Pacific. “Catching Up With The Immediate Family” will be hosted by Scott Goldman, who will be asking them about their upcoming album and, of course, their insane catalog of recorded music. The band has Sklar alongside his longtime musical partners Danny Kortchmar, Waddy Wachtel, Russ Kunkel, and Steve Postell. Together, they’ve recorded countless hits for artists like Jackson Browne, Warren Zevon, David Crosby, Stevie Nicks, and more.

“I’m so excited to speak with five of the most accomplished musicians and songwriters around,” Goldman exclaimed. “It only makes sense for them to be in a band together. These guys are both witness to, and participants in, music history! (And the new single sounds great!).”

The online conversation will be a live event held via Zoom. The GRAMMY Museum is selling tickets for the event for a total of $15.83 with all proceeds going to support the museum’s mission to continue virtual music education initiatives. The museum itself is currently closed due to COVID-19.

The Immediate Family’s new album will be out later this year, but you can get a taste of it with the music video for “Cruel Twist”:

    Hello,
    My name is Bruce Imig and I am a bassist. I also love EA amplifiers. I’m having trouble with my iamp800 and iamp500 and can’t find the scamatics for them. I was wondering if you could help put me in the right direction to find them. Love your playing and have become the groove player I always wanted to be by following your lead. Thank You.
