Nearly Dan, a tribute band to Steely Dan, plays a two-hour show of their classics and deep cuts at The Live Rooms.
Nearly Dan bring their Steely Dan tribute to The Live Rooms on Saturday 22 May 2027, playing in Room L1. It's a long way off, but it's part of a full year of tour dates they're running into 2027 with a refreshed line-up.
The set runs over two hours and pairs deep cuts with the band's favourite classics. They draw from Countdown to Ecstasy, The Royal Scam, Aja and Gaucho, and they also pull from Donald Fagen's solo record The Nightfly. It's a broad sweep of the catalogue, so you'll hear the well-known ones alongside the songs that don't get out as often.
Nearly Dan describe themselves as a tribute that's less a homage than an homage to Steely Dan: faithful to Donald Fagen and Walter Becker's meticulously crafted grooves and allusive lyrical style but not reverential, relaxed yet as tight as their namesakes, and bringing its own spirit and spontaneous humour to every concert. More than 50 years have passed since Steely Dan's first album, Can't Buy a Thrill, and Nearly Dan is now in its 30th year on the road.
