Description
Glenn Kaiser Band:
Over twenty-five years of Glenn Kaiser's pioneering contemporary Christian music ministry have culminated in the Glenn Kaiser Band, a scorching power trio that serves up hard-driving blues rock with no-nonsense lyrics that appeal to both longtime Resurrection Band fans as well as fans of Kaiser's ground breaking solo blues albums.
Fans of Resurrection Band will note that influence, as Kaiser and Montroy were principal songwriters for REZ.

Offical website for guitarist Nels Cline:
This is what is generally termed THE OFFICIAL WEBSITE. Welcome! Yours truly, Nels Cline, is best known as a guitarist, is sometimes known to have penned a composition or two, and is often known for largely improvised forays into sound, melody, and rhythm. I was born in Los Angeles, CA in 1956. I have a twin brother named Alex who is also a musician (and a damned fine one at that!). After a long run of mostly obscure activities in the U.S. and Europe (see the Discography Dept. for added clues and/or insights), I have landed in a rather notable ROCK band called WILCO. This occurred in Spring of 2004, and it is a real pleasure, let me tell you. I'm still doing a lot of other music when time allows, and this site is the place to find out about all of that. My working band that plays my own type of instrumental music is called THE NELS CLINE SINGERS. As it is the nature of so-called "jazz" and freely improvised musics, I am often found collaborating with a large and sometimes unpredictable pool of musicians from all over the place. Don't get confused, this is fun! Check it out...
Some of the artists I collaborate with and/or work for may be familiar to you. Many of them will not be. Lately I've been working with quite a few so-called singer-songwriters - a strange, unplanned pleasure! But most often you can find me playing for between 10 and 100 or so folks in a gallery, old theater, or dingy nightclub playing with odd and often magically gifted instrumentalists. Some of these sounds have - often erroneously - been labeled "jazz", though at times that term seems accurate. I come from a musical twilight zone in which world communication/awareness and cultural boundaries were expanded, altered, exploded. Like many people who were affected by the revolutionary atmosphere of the late Sixties and early Seventies, I remember what change could feel like, what kind of pure magic sound can create. Hell, I believe in the transcendent properties of art, in its ability to affect one's life in a profound way. And, as I've previously stated here, I still - after over 30 years of guitarcentric creative endeavors - derive a near-moronic pleasure from playing the various musics I play ...

"Pedal Board Spiel (2005)"
OK, people. You all seem fixated, I dare say HYPNOTIZED, by all my damn effects boxes. So here you go: all about my NEW PEDAL BOARD, being used with Wilco and anything else I can find to drag all 75 pounds of it (including swanky road case) to! I confess that it is a bit irritating to me that people seem so fixated on HOW MANY pedals I have. This is because there seems to be something double-edged about it: a kind of fascination mixed with feelings of skepticism and/or disgust, as though it's somehow amazing that I can keep track of it all and at the same time I must be some kind of charlatan to NEED so many pedals! Well, what can I say? I didn't always use them (for quite a while I played mostly acoustic guitar), but I seem to have an aptitude for using them, and I think they're a lot of fun! Seriously, there is way too much emphasis placed on gear in general (read the rest of this column if you haven't already for further amplification of this point), and effects pedals are just another tool, another way to get color into one's life. With Wilco, I have been using more distortion devices than ever (fuzz, overdrive, distortion - sticklers!). This is because I enjoy tailoring my sound very specifically for certain songs. And as I said previously, you can't own too many fuzzboxes in my book! We are living in a time of vast choices in this area - boutique items galore. It wasn't always like this. The 80s were a dark time for a young person looking to get that nasal fuzz sound evident on songs like "Psychotic Reaction" or "Pushin' Too Hard". Everything was all creamy, soaring... Dare I say it, MIDI-controlled, pre-fab hell! At least for me... So take a look at this bunch of colorful crap. It breaks down into 2 areas: the BOARD, and what I call my SCIENCE PROJECT, which is a bunch more stuff elevated on a road case to my right ...

4. ruben romero
Ruben Romero's fascination with the guitar started at the age of seven, after seeing a flamenco dance performance in Taos, New Mexico. A New Mexico native, his interest was further fanned when he saw flamenco guitarists on the "Ed Sullivan Show."
He began studying guitar at age II and later, inspired by the musical interests of his older brothers, he studied flamenco guitar in Spain. In the following years, Romero became a mainstay of the New Mexico music scene and began releasing a series of recordings that merged traditional flamenco with classical and jazz guitar. Romero regularly joins other flamenco artists in public performances and private juergas. He has also appeared with the Denver Symphony and Minnesota Orchestra and has been the subject of a musical documentary aired nationwide on PBS, called 'Simple Treasures' ...

5. thom bresh
Thom Bresh is one of the world's greatest thumb picking guitarists and entertainers. He was the 2001 inductee to the Thumb Picker's Hall of Fame. Bresh is also the son of Country Music great, Merle Travis. Thom Bresh is a multi-faceted entertainer. A singer, songwriter, recording artist, impressionist, and instrumentalist with an eventful career stemming from the tender age of three. He is the son of legendary Hall of Fame guitar great "Merle Travis", and can recreate that famous "Travis style" with an incredible Bresh twist.
When touring, Thom travels with some of his array of guitars including his signature handcrafted "Dualette," (the famous two-sided guitar that he refers to as "My Band"), a custom signature Plummer" attached to a synthesizer creating incredible instrument replications, (such as a horn section, piano, and strings), and his "Unity Special" 18 inch archtop, (a state of the art version of Merle Travis' famous Gibson Super 400 Special). You may also catch the Breshman with one of his signature "Bresh Spirits".
Thom and extraordinary guitar pickin' have become one... globally. In New Zealand, Bresh's audiences come to see "The yank with the 2 sided guitar." Thom Bresh is hailed throughout France for his captivating sound and memorable stage presence. He also carries the coveted title of "Wine Lord" by both the World Wine Counsel in Bordeaux, France and Patrimonio, Corsica. In Europe he has performed with entertainment greats like Marcel Dadi, Frances Cabrel and Albert Lee. In his vast career, he has shared audiences with everyone from Bob Hope to Gordon Lightfoot.
He guest starred with Chet Atkins and Steve Wariner on the TNN special "A Salute to the Country Greats." He has hosted his own successful weekly television variety show called "Nashville Swing," and was a regular on Dinah! and the Merv Griffin Show ...
