Official USA Fan Club for world renown instrumental guitarist Nokie Edwards, former lead guitarist of The Ventures.
Nokie Edwards is universally recognized as one of the world’s premier guitarists. He was born Nole Edwards in 1935 in Lahoma, Oklahoma, hence the nickname, "Nokie" which was given to him by his father, Elbert. Nokie’s mother, Nannie, was a Native American Cherokee, and Nokie is proud of his Cherokee heritage.
Nokie lives in Oregon with his wife, Judy. They have four children, two girls and two boys: Tina, Patrick, Kim & Seth. They lost Kim in 1988 in a car accident. There are six grandchildren and four great grandchildren. Judy Edwards is president of the Nokie Edwards Official USA Fan Club.

Nokie learned how to play guitar at the age of five; by the age of eleven he could play all string instruments. He turned professional at the age of twelve when he performed on a country station in Idaho.

Michael Lucarelli is considered one of today's leading guitarists. He is known for his unique programming and expressive style. Brian Staker from the Event writes "In the hands of a master instrumentalist, who shapes the sound almost like a sculptor molds a block of clay, classical music isn't stale or static at all, but galvanizing."
Michael is very sought after for concerts, festivals, weddings, conventions, and private events. Mr. Lucarelli blends Classical, Spanish, South American, orignal compositions & Popular arrangements to create that perfect atmosphere ...

Al Petteway and Amy White:
Award-winning, critically acclaimed, passionate and playful. They are all that and they're married, too. Al & Amy are an acoustic performing arts team committed to creating an intensely personal yet universal sound. They draw inspiration from musical traditions across the globe and distill these myriad styles into a rich and unique voice – a timeless recipe for healing, heartfelt music. During their live shows, this husband and wife team captures the hearts of their audiences with the obvious love they have for one another and the colorful stories about the places, history and events that inspire their music. They invite their listeners to seek out and celebrate beauty and joy in all aspects of life.
Al & Amy first began performing and recording together as a duo in early 1995 creating an exciting blend of contemporary, Celtic- and Appalachian influenced, original and traditional instrumental and vocal music on acoustic guitars, mandolin, vocals, Celtic harp, banjo, Irish bouzouki, piano and world percussion. They are among the most respected and well liked acts in the acoustic music scene and have been Artists In Residence at the Kennedy Center Millennium Stage and perform at some of the finest concert venues in the country. Their signature sound is heard often on NPR, in independent films and on radio shows across the globe (not to mention all of the healing centers and birthing rooms.) While living in the Washington, D.C. area, they won a grand total of 50 WAMMIES from the Washington Area Music Association in the Folk, Celtic and New Age categories and 5 grants from the Maryland State Arts Council for both composition and instrumental performance. In 2001, they won a coveted “INDIE” award in the Acoustic Instrumental category from the Association for Independent Music (now part of the Grammy organization.) In 2005, Al received a GRAMMY Award from NARAS (National Association of Recording Arts and Sciences) for his solo fingerstyle guitar contribution to the pop instrumental compilation, “Pink Guitar” ...

Jim Crye Dallas Fort Worth Guitarist: started playing guitar 17 years ago and have not stopped since. Ace Frehley is the reason I even started playing guitar. Joes Garage was a local metal club in the 80's where I used to go watch Pantera play everytime they had a gig there before they got signed. So Dimebag was a big direct influence on me. Bill Ham, whom I took lessons from, was the guitar player for Sonny and Cher and was also a big direct influence. The others that matter are, in no particular order: Billy Gibbons, Jeff Beck, The Red Hot Chili Peppers, Joe Satriani, Eric Johnson, Steve Vai, Jake E. Lee, Jerry Cantrell, Incubus, Sevendust.
Local Dallas/Ft.Worth area bands I have played with are: KRY (metal), Sarcasm (metal), Twisting Cain (hard rock), Riding Shotgun (covers), Five Leaves Left (diva alternative), Blue Buddha (funk rock).
