Don Felder

Experience an evening with Don "Fingers" Felder, a legendary rock guitarist and former lead guitarist of The Eagles. Co-writer of the iconic hit "Hotel California," Felder has built an impressive solo career following his tenure with the Eagles. A Rock & Roll Hall of Fame inductee since 1998, Felder has also been honored by the Musicians Hall of Fame and Museum in 2016 and the Florida Artists Hall of Fame in 2017. His journey began in Gainesville, Florida, where he taught guitar to Tom Petty and learned slide guitar from Duane Allman of the Allman Brothers.

Felder’s solo career includes two acclaimed albums: *Airborne* (1983) and *Road to Forever* (2012). The Vault digs into five decades of Felder's song writing; featuring newly finished versions of long‑lost demos—some originally pitched for Eagles albums. A true musical renaissance figure, Felder helped shape the Eagles’ sound with tracks like “Victim of Love,” “Those Shoes,” and “Visions,” before launching a successful solo career that’s included collaborations with Slash, Mick Fleetwood, Joe Satriani, Orianthi, Richie Sambora, and more. 

The opener “Move On,” written in 1974, kicks off a collection that spans rock, reggae‑techno, and ‘80s‑inspired grooves. Highlights include the reflective first single “Free at Last,” the Hollywood‑skewering “Hollywood Victim,” the swaggering “I Like the Things You Do,” and a new, heavier take on his cult classic “Heavy Metal.” The album closes with “Blue Skies,” a moving tribute to Glenn Frey. Felder’s all‑star lineup includes David Paich, Steve Lukather, Greg Phillinganes, Nathan East, Jim Keltner, Chad Cromwell, and more.

Beyond the studio, Felder is a bestselling author (Heaven and Hell: My Life in the Eagles), TV host, and film/TV composer. He continues to tour nonstop, including this summer’s Brotherhood of Rock run with Styx and the Kevin Cronin Band. Fifty years in, Don Felder is still crafting, exploring, and pushing forward—one unmistakable guitar line at a time.
