Johnny A. (live in concert) - 09/07/2011
Boston's legendary
"America's Next Guitar Hero" Instrumental Electric Guitar: rock-blues-jazz Johnny A. has one of the most eloquent voices in modern music; and he doesn't sing a note. Instead, he channels joy, love, humor, sadness -- every aspect of the human experience -- , through his guitar. The secret is his blend of melody, sonic definition, technique and that indefinable-yet-tangible quality called "soul." All the virtues of Johnny A.'s playing are in abundant display on One November Night, a new DVD/CD set recorded live in his hometown of Boston, MA. The stylish player flaunts an amazing array of techniques, each of which are used to execute a particular arrangement. Even though he's very much the architect of his own sound, his potpourri can be compared to the likes of Danny Gatton and Dick Dale at one end of the spectrum, and Jeff Beck and Jimi Hendrix at the other. Johnny A. is one of a select few to have a signature Gibson guitar model, of which he was intimately involved in designing. A true "guitarist's guitarist." He brings his rock-blues-jazz instrumental hybrid fireworks (in a trio format) to the Capital Region for the first time at Saratoga's favorite music room. (Note: the $16 advance tickets are limited in quantity. Up-front, reserved table seating is also available at $25. )
