Lowell George was the guitar virtuoso, vocalist and songwriter for Little Feat. He passed away too soon in 1979 but left behind an incredible legacy. This album celebrates his great work with 25 covers done by some of George’s friends, family, and admirers.

HUGE thanks to everyone that made this album possible, including Sheldon Gomberg, Inara George, and Flatiron Records. This was a labor of love and dedication that we are excited to share with the world!
