Eric Clapton is not only the composer-performer of songs that touch the heart and soul (Wonderful Tonight, Old Love, Tears in Haven, River of Tears, …), but he also and above all embodies the entire history of rock and blues: from his time in the Yardbirds, to his collaborations with John Mayall & the Bluesbreakers, with Duan Allman in Derek and the Dominos, … which marked the history of Rhythm'n'Blues and Blues-Rock forever, without forgetting the group Cream which single-handedly and in the space of two years paved the way for groups like Led Zeppelin and consequently for the Hard-Rock that followed.

His interpretations of unforgettable covers like I Shot the Sheriff, Cocaine, Knockin' On Heaven's Door, … have (almost) succeeded in making us forget the original songs.

Finally, Eric Clapton is in constant dialogue with the giants of Rhythm'n'Blues: Muddy Waters, BB King, Big Bill Broonzy and especially Robert Johnson. How can we forget his masterful covers of Hoochie Coocchie Man, Sweet Home Chicago, Hey Hey Baby Hey or Goin' Down Slow…

By covering these sublime pieces, it is to this genius of the Blues and this legend of Rock that the group OLD LOVE pays homage during its concerts while getting closer to his spirit, his heart and his soul. If we could say, and rightly so, that Clapton is the soul of Blues and Rock, we will say that OLD LOVE wants to be that of Eric Clapton.
