“It’s pure rock’n’roll by a band of assassins who aim to groove and never miss their target…

a collection that rock guitar connoisseurs will savor.” – MOJO MAGAZINE

Known for their long, illustrious careers backing countless Hall of Fame artists, these musicians have come together to perform their own songs as The Immediate Family. Prior to forming band, Kortchmar, Kunkel and Sklar worked together since the early 70’s as the legendary ensemble The Section, backing up James Taylor and Carole King on “The Troubadour Reunion Tour” as well as appearing on Taylor and King’s various albums. Frequent collaborators both in the studio and on-stage, their work can be heard on albums from Jackson Browne, James Taylor, Linda Ronstadt, Stevie Nicks, Keith Richards, Warren Zevon, Graham Nash, Neil Young, David Crosby and many more. Collectively, these musicians helped define the sound of a generation.

The Immediate Family performed with Carole King at her induction into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame ceremony in 2021 and was also featured in the documentary Carole King & James Taylor: Just Call Out My Name, which premiered on CNN & HBO Max. In 2022, the esteemed supergroup released Live from Telefunken Soundstage via Quarto Valley Records, a six-song live recording. The EP came on the heels of the band’s self-titled album, which debuted at #6 on Billboard’s Blues Chart, preceded by the EPs Slippin’ and Slidin’ and Can’t Stop Progress.
