Note from the Commish:
Please consider bringing other people to Guitar League meetings. They do not need to be guitar players. People often just come for the music. Remember, first visit is always free!
Pre-meeting performance: Karl Sperber, starts about 6:30
Main Presentation: Carol Bryant Quartet
The Carol Bryant Quartet features Carol on vocals, Bruce Wood on guitar, Dave Arliss on bass and Steve Orlando on percussion and vocals. Starting in 2015 as a guitar/vocal duo, Carol and Bruce invited Dave to join in 2016. The trio’s SAMMY-nominated CD was released in January 2017, and the trio became a quartet with the addition of Steve in 2019. Each member of the group brings a unique background in the study and performance of a variety of musical genres. With a foundation in jazz standards and bossa nova, the quartet also plays a wide variety of acoustic music, including jazz-influenced favorites by Stevie Wonder, James Taylor, Norah Jones, Michael Buble, Sting, and more.
The quartet is always working on new material, including songs from decades past as well as newer hits that catch their attention. They believe in songs that tell a story or touch an emotion, and only choose music that they know will speak to the audience. Carol, Bruce, Dave and Steve are committed to improving their personal musicianship and their performance as a quartet. They each believe that music is primarily for listeners, not performers, and are dedicated to giving their audience members a sincere, authentic, and personal musical experience each time they play.
Guitar League Presentation
The Carol Bryant Quartet’s Guitar League presentation will demonstrate their holistic approach to making and performing music together. Drawing from their varied repertoire, the group will address song selection, rehearsal techniques, arranging, preparing set lists, booking gigs, building a fan base, PA and sound checks, connecting with the audience, and finding joy in sharing music.
Breakout sessions: TBA
