Athens, Georgia based guitarist returns to Hoover for free concert.Athens, Georgia-based guitarist Shane Parish devotes much of his time to developing his singular and expressive musicianship. He is a self-taught player who communicates through emotion, unexpected melodicism, technical whimsy, a nuanced sense of form and rich timbral variety, simultaneously drawing from the guitar’s history and aiming for its future.
He records and performs as a soloist, as a member of the Bill Orcutt Guitar Quartet, and, for over 20 years, he has led the avant-rock band Ahleuchatistas. He is also a highly in-demand educator.
“Shane Parish is a relentless interpreter. The guitarist's catalog is full of folk songs, sea shanties and the Chet Baker Sings album thoughtfully and playfully mangled. (Parish also notated and arranged Bill Orcutt's Music for Four Guitars for, well, four guitars — their Tiny Desk is raucously joyful.)”
—Lars Gotrich, NPR
