Lawyers, Guns and Money – The Immediate Family … Vancouver Island Musicfest 2019

Lawyers



From their eye-opening mainstage performance Sunday evening in the Concert Bowl, The Immediate Family (Danny Kortchmar, Waddy Wachtel, Steve Postel, Leland Sklar Jimmy Paxon) perform another one of the songs Waddy played with Warren Zevon.

The Immediate Family brings together some of the most recorded, respected and sought-after players in modern music. “The idea behind this tour has been a collaboration with my musical brothers, Russ Kunkel, Leland Sklar, Waddy Wachtel, and Steve Postell,” stated Danny Kortchmar.

Kortchmar, who has played, produced and written James Taylor, Don Henley, Carole King, and Jackson Browne, to name a few, had been thinking about performing many of the songs he had either written or co-written with those various artists and decided it was time for him to go on the road and perform his interpretations of that material with The Immediate Family. “I performing live with these guys – heck, I’ve been playing with them longer than I want to admit, and it still feels fresh every night!”

Kortchmar, Kunkel and Sklar made up three-quarters of The Section, best known for both their studio and live work in support of some of the top selling singer/songwriters and solo singers in the history of music. Together, The Section helped define the sound of a generation.

Also on guitar and vocals legendary rock guitarist Waddy Wachtel, who has played with many of the same artists as Kortchmar, as well as artists like Keith Richards, Stevie Nicks, Ferry and the late Warren Zevon, with whom he co-wrote and produced a number of hit songs including “Werewolves of London,” which The Immediate Family has included in their set list. In addition to renowned session players Leland Sklar (Phil Collins, Warren Zevon, James Taylor) and Russ Kunkel (Jackson Browne, James Taylor, Carly Simon), whose credits like a Who’s-Who of the music industry, The Immediate Family also includes Steve Postell on guitar and vocal. Postell is a seasoned touring and session player who has worked with David Crosby, Jennifer Warnes, John Oates, Robben Ford and many others.
