SUMMARY:Randy Hansen’s Jimi Hendrix Experience
DESCRIPTION:Forty years after his death\, Jimi Hendrix is still leaving an impact on the music world. The recent release of Valleys of Neptune — a collection of previously unreleased studio recordings — rocketed Jimi to #4 on the Billboard 200 Chart\, making it the highest-charting album of his career. While the legend of this true “guitar hero” lives on\, no one celebrates it more than the remarkable Randy Hansen. \nHansen has acquired quite a reputation as one of the best Hendrix impersonators on the 3rd stone from the sun. He is one of the few players officially recognized by the Hendrix family. He has been successfully doing his “Hendrix trip” for years and has toured / played with Uli Jon Roth\, Jack Bruce\, and Paul Rodgers. Randy channels the spirit of Jimi through his Fender strat on the awesome “Hendrix By Hansen” disc. \nToday Hansen’s audience is worldwide\, through persistent demand by the fans in America and Europe\, whether with The Randy Hansen Band or working with other entertainer’s. Steve Miller\, Paul Rodgers (Free\, Bad Company\, The Firm\, Queen)\, Buddy Miles\, Don Wilson (The Ventures)\, Alan White (YES\, John Lennon)\, Sammy Hagar\, Herbie Hancock\, Stevie Ray Vaughn\, Robert Cray\, Roger Fisher (Heart)\, Bob Segar and Hendrix alumni Noel Redding and Mitch Mitchell\, are just a few of the many musicians he’s performed with.

SUMMARY:An Evening with Pierre Bensusan
DESCRIPTION:“It’s Like The Guitar Has Been Given Free Reign To Play It’s Self!”\nFrench-Algerian acoustic guitar virtuoso\, vocalist and composer Pierre Bensusan\, surnamed “Mister DADGAD”\, has taken his unique sound to all corners of the globe. \nWinner of the Independent Music Award for his triple live album “Encore”\, voted Best World Music Guitarist by Guitar Player Magazine reader’s Poll\, winner of the Rose d’Or at the Montreux Festival for his debut album\, Pierre is recognized as one of the greatest guitar players of the 21st century. \nBorn in Oran\, French-Algeria\, in 1957\, when France was decolonizing its Empire\, Pierre Bensusan’s family moved to Paris when he was 4. He began formal studies on piano at the age of 7 and at 11 taught himself guitar. Influenced in those early days by the folk revival blooming in Britain\, France and North America\, Bensusan began first to explore his own diverse musical heritage and then moved to the horizons beyond. He signed his first recording contract at 17\, and one year later his first album\, “Près de Paris”\, won the Grand Prix du Disque upon his debut at the Montreux Festival in Switzerland. \nDescribed by the L.A. Times as “one of the most unique and brilliant acoustic guitar veterans in the world music scene today”\, Pierre’s name became synonymous with contemporary acoustic guitar genius\, long before the terms New Age or World Music were invented. He has literally created a style of playing with the ability to make a single guitar sound like an entire band as he brings the audience on a mesmerizing musical journey. And yet\, Bensusan is more than what any musician or music lover expects from a guitarist. He is a composer as well as a bilingual and original and improvisational vocalist\, with his own scat technique. \nImmortalised by the tune “Bensusan” written in tribute by the late Michael Hedges\, and referenced as an important inspiration to many other great musicians\, Pierre Bensusan is a one-of-a-kind artist whose music transcends genre and time\, with an uninhibited sense of musical freedom and expression\, a sense of something both playful and serious\, otherworldly yet right here right now. His “manner” of playing defies classification – crossing world\, classical\, jazz\, traditional\, folk\, pop and more. None can be isolated as simply “World Music”\, “Celtic”\, “Arabic” or “French”; rather\, they represent Pierre’s genuine vocabulary and the best part of our world in its current state\, a world sharing itself. Not to be missed!
