Guitarist, composer, arranger, lyricist, writer, educator, and vocalist JOEL HARRISON has “created a new blueprint for jazz” (New Orleans Times-Picayune). Harrison’s music may be founded on jazz but veers into classical, rock, country, and all manner of American roots music. Succinctly described by the New York Timesas “protean… brilliant,” he has also written multiple works for chamber ensembles and is an active film composer. Harrison is the founder and director of the Alternative Guitar Summit, a yearly festival devoted to new and unusual guitar music. Pat Metheny has called the Summit “one of the most interesting and distinguished forums for guitar on the planet.”
