Playing gypsy jazz trio style from 7-9p.
Gypsy jazz guitar sensation Lisa Liu and French jazz accordion virtuoso Alicia Baker join forces for an intimate concert focusing on the sounds that bind them: elegant French waltzes, classic Paris swing tunes and the driving rhythms of gypsy jazz. Playing a mix of standards and original compositions, the two rising stars will captivate us with their strong musical points of view as they explore unexpected paths of inspiration and influence with a first-rate rhythm section: Sami Arefin - rhythm guitar, and Zach Serleth - bass.

Thank you to Strymon for including me on their Artist Feature page! This post features jazz players who use Strymon guitar pedals in creative and inventive ways. I love using the Strymon Riverside pedal with my Lebreton gypsy jazz guitar and Krivo Pickups Djangobucker pickup. Check out the full article HERE.
All, I'm excited to share the debut of my new Santa Cruz Guitar OM and the debut of my first original composition in a very long time. Hope you enjoy!
