He is also a two-time winner of the LA Treasures Award for his efforts in keeping this important acoustic guitar tradition alive. For his work with “Weird Al”, he has earned four Grammy’s and a Billboard #1 CD debut for 2015’s “Mandatory Fun”. His numerous CDss feature many original compositions as well as inventive arrangements of the genreʻs classic repertoire. His recent release, “Guitar Stories” goes beyond slack key, exploring other genres like West African guitar, Middle Eastern Music and Americana. His latest CD, “Slackers In Paradise” features steel guitar legend, Ken Emerson. For more information, visit the Ruth B. Shannon for the Performing Arts. Ruth B.
