William Royce “Boz” Scaggs made his name as a guitarist and sometimes lead singer of the Steve Miller Band in the 1960s. In the following decade he scored several Top 20 hit singles in the United States as a solo artist, including the well-known hits Lowdown, What Can I Say, and Lido Shuffle from the critically acclaimed album Silk Degrees, which peaked at #2 on the Billboard Hot 100. Scaggs continues to write, record music and tour; his latest album Memphis dates from 2013. It was recorded in that same city and contains covers of some of his favorite compositions from other artists. Last year he also did a tour with Donald Fagen and Michael McDonald called ‘Dukes of September Rhythm Revue.’
