Doctor Wu, a Los Angeles-based Steely Dan tribute band, will be performing at the Solvang Veterans Memorial Hall on Friday, Dec. 3, at 7 p.m. (doors open at 6:30 p.m.). This pop-up concert will be the first in a series hosted by Solvang Theaterfest. While the Solvang Festival Theater is temporarily closed during its ongoing reconstruction, this concert series will be held at several alternative locations throughout the Santa Ynez Valley.
Led by frontman Tony Egan, Doctor Wu is an 11-piece ensemble that aims to replicate “the textures and authenticity of Steely Dan’s music,” according to press materials. Tickets to the upcoming concert are currently available in advance at solvangfestivaltheater.org. Admission to the concert is $22. Attendees are required to wear masks while indoors at the Veterans’ Memorial Building, regardless of vaccination status, except when actively eating or drinking.
