(from artist's site) "I think, the first time I heard the guitar I was still in my mother's womb" says Adam Rafferty.
He was born and raised in Harlem. He was mugged in front of his building when he was 10. He played in a hard rock band at 12, got ripped off by a club owner on his first gig at 15, and by 18 he was a rapper on a gold record in overseas.

Artist Info
(From the Raezer's Edge site) Rich Raezer started building speaker cabinets to fill a void in the market: a small cabinet with a big sound. Many musicians complained that in order to get a great sound from their guitar, they had to carry about 80 pounds of equipment. After building many cabinets, Rich found the solution to the weight and size problem without sacrificing tone performance. The final result was a compact, closed -back, tuned, ported cabinet that produced a warm, focused tone with no break-up.

Be sure to visit Gerald's web site for sample of his style. Gerald is a multi-instrumentalist, playing guitar, lap steel and ukulele.
Artist Info
What the critics say... Successfully blending the sounds of jazz blues and swing, Gerald Ross has created a guitar style uniquely his own. Whether he is playing jazz standards, popular favorites, delta and urban blues, Tin Pan Alley melodies, New Orleans rhythms or boogie woogie, it's bound to be a delightful surprise to any listener.
It's hard to say whether the ukulele is making a comeback -- if it will ever again be
as popular as it was in the 1920s and '30s. Certainly many musicians in a number of
different and sometimes unexpected genres such as rock 'n' roll and pop are taking it
up. Not only musicians, either. Warren Buffett, the second richest man in the world,
plays one. (I wonder what Bill Gates plays: a piccolo?)♣
Artist Info
Avi Rothbard is considered by many guitarists and jazz critics as one of the most tasty, swinging and extremely aware Jazz guitarist in New York. His style of playing is unique; his music displays a personal touch of harmony and melodic rhythm with many recognized great jazz among his influences.
