As part of MN Guitar Society's Jazz and Fingerstyle Guitar Concert Series, we're featuring a trio of amazing guitarists for our first concert in the Series. At 6PM is Adam Kiesling. After moving to Minneapolis for college, Adam fell under the sway of old-time stringband music and guitarists like Mississippi John Hurt, Doc Watson and Norman Blake, and took fingerpicking lessons from guitarist/songwriter Cam Waters. He plays in Corpse Reviver, a Twin Cities trio that primarily plays the songs found on Harry Smith's Anthology of American Folk Music.
At 7PM, it's the Resonator Guitar Duo of Gabriela Sweet and Scott Keever.
Gabriela plays resonator guitars (dobros & Nationals) as her dearest collaborators; they open sound doors. As a bottleneck slide player, she loves these tremendously responsive instruments – especially while improvising. She plays jazz, blues, son montuno, festejo, zydeco, and American standards; singing in Spanish, English, French, Gaelic, German, Italian, Brazilian Portuguese, Russian, Tagalog, and Ukrainian.
Scott is an award-winning fingerstyle guitarist from Minneapolis, MN who combines an American roots sound with styles as far ranging as Celtic, Balkan and jazz. He is a multifaceted performer who is as comfortable playing bottleneck slide on a resophonic guitar as he is playing classical or folk guitar. As well as being a solo performer, Scott plays guitar and Bulgarian tambura for Orkestar Bez Ime (OBI), an award-winning Twin Cities band that specializes in Balkan dance music.
There'll be a few surprises in store for this concert so don't miss it!
