TOM SCOTT joins STEELY JAM

The Architect of the Aja Sound Joins the West Coast’s Premier Steely Dan Experience. Prepare for a night of impeccable “renegade” precision. For one night only, STEELY JAM —LA’s definitive interpreters of the Fagen/Becker songbook—are joined by the man who helped define the sound: legendary saxophonist and Grammy-winner Tom Scott. Tom’s pedigree is the stuff of music history; beyond his iconic work on Steely Dan’s Aja and Gaucho albums, he was a primary architect of the “LA Sound.” He famously played on Boz Scaggs’ seminal album Silk Degrees, collaborating with the very session giants who would go on to form the band Toto. This isn’t just a tribute; it’s a living celebration of the “A-Team” era of recording. What to Expect on This Special Night: The Original DNA: Hear the soaring, original solos from FM and Peg performed by the man who tracked them in the studio. The “Session Room” Stories: In between songs, Tom loves to share exclusive, firsthand stories from the booth—sharing what it was like to perform and arrange for the masters during the golden era of the California groove. The New Chapter: Alongside the Steely Dan hits you know by heart, this special performance will feature a curated selection of landmark tracks Tom originally recorded and/or arranged for other legendary artists, bringing his most famous studio collaborations back to the stage. Deep-Cut Grooves: From the Lido Shuffle of influences to the complex arrangements of Gaucho, this is a masterclass in musicianship. If you want to know how the magic was made, you have to hear it from the source. Tom Scott isn’t just a guest; he’s the history of the groove itself. Whether you’re a lifelong “Dan-fan” or a lover of elite musicianship, this is the special performance you’ve been waiting for. Genres: Sophisticated Rock.
