GUITAR HEROES UNLEASHED

Some of music’s finest guitarists dazzled audiences at the L.A. Guitar Festival at the Redondo Beach Performing Arts Center in late August. Hosted by Kala Koa Entertainment, the two-day event showcased blazing finger work of gypsy-jazz guru John Jorgenson, heart-wrenching songwriting of bluesman Doug MacLeod, and spellbinding technique and musicality of Grammy-winning legends Albert Lee and Eric Johnson. Wrapping up the festival was a jaw-dropping performance by guitar supergroup Renegade Creation featuring session ace Michael Landau and jazz-blues master Robben Ford.
