Keeping it all in the family: Beck, father share stage for first time at Hollywood Bowl engagement next month

Beck is keeping it all in the family next month, when his father, arranger-conductor David Campbell, will lead the Hollywood Bowl Orchestra Strings as they accompany the "Devil's Haircut" singer live on stage.  The Sept. 20th engagement at the Hollywood Bowl, which is sold out, marks the first time the two music-minded men have performed on stage together. 

Campbell's work has earned him multiple Grammy awards, and a pair of Oscars.  His arrangements appear on records from artists such as Neil Diamond, the Rolling Stones and (not surprisingly) Beck. 
Speaking of Beck, the fresh-from-the Outside Lands festival performer announced an intimate gig at San Francisco's Independent in an email blast yesterday to fans. The gig is already sold out, according to the SF Weekly.
