SOLO show, ALL GUITAR!! WITH GUESTS! I'll bring a couple or three of my favorites axes. I love arranging tunes that you might not expect to hear on acoustic guitar. Very lightly amped in the cozy loft...an intimate and fun space. Special guests will make an appearance! Joe Iaquinto is a pro's pro...vocalist and multi-instrumentalist (guitar and bass), having moved here from LA a few years back with a resume a mile long of famous people he's worked with. I'm privileged to have the chance to join with him for some tunes on occasion. My other special guest, Sarah Marcotte, is a vocalist/guitarist and songwriter who I met recently and instantly became a fan of. I'll join Sarah on harmonies and bass for a few tunes, including two of her great originals for which I recently went into the studio to record backing vocals! You can hear those tunes on her Bandcamp site, and/or in person at the show!
