Houseband Guitar

Guitarists must have strong reading skills, great rock improv chops, and a ton of stylistic versatility. Proficiency in note-head reading is necessary, as well as interpreting chord charts and lead sheets. A jazz vocabulary, comfortability with blues and pop, and understanding of various styles is crucial for comping. Gig experience and a wide repertoire? Even better. If you like shredding solos a la Van Halen but also building chord solos a la Wes Montgomery, sign on up!
