about

The Guitar Improv Summit is a celebration of spontaneity featuring some of the finest improvisers in the world. Volume 2 is a compilation that takes advantage of a global pandemic's pent-up creative energy. This edition is a virtual festival: Picture yourself in a swivel chair surrounded by 11 stages, each offering a wildly different palette of sounds in succession...

The players on this album hail from New York, London, Mumbai and Seattle, as well as Le Havre, France; Oulu Finland; the Oklahoma prairie; the Colorado foothills; and the Berkshire Mountains. They have a five-decade age range. From these far-flung sources comes a rich body of music - experimental to traditional, ethereal to noisy, tonal to dissonant, acoustic to electronic. You'll hear established veterans, rising stars and guitar improv pioneers.

The musicians on this album are listed below, including 14 guitarists and an outstanding supporting cast.

For the backstory on each piece and its creator(s), please click on individual tracks.

Thanks for your interest in this project! For more information visit rightbrainrecords.com.
