Dave Mason has worked with members of the Beatles, Michael Jackson, and Jimi Hendrix, just to name a few.

The 77-year-old Traffic guitar whiz is also about to outshine the hell out of Mike Love’s iteration of The Beach Boys, who he’s playing a few dates with this summer.

But his two “Traffic Jam” gigs in downtown Clearwater this weekend will feature a healthy mix of hits and deep cuts from the celebrated ‘60s psych-rock band that once featured Steve Winwood.

Jimmy Hall—who at one point sang leads for Southern rock outfit Wet Willie—opens both nights.

Tickets to see Dave Mason play Clearwater’s Bilheimer Capitol Theatre on Sunday-Monday, March 24-25 are still available and start at $39.50.
