CCAE Presents International Guitar Night

March 2, 2022 @ 7:30 pm

International Guitar Night is back with an unforgettable evening of live music with a brand new lineup, featuring acoustic rock sensation Luca Stricagnoli, progressive classical guitarist Thu Le, Slack Key master Jim “Kimo” West, and Latin Swing pioneer Lulo Reinhardt.

Luca Stricagnoli: With a huge online following (over 200 million views of his music videos), and bookings in every corner of the globe, Stricagnoli has been hailed as a phenomenon and a guitar prodigy. Get ready to experience his unique style of re-arranging your favorite rock songs into acoustic masterpieces.
Thu Le: An international, award-winning classical guitarist with a passion for teaching. Not only has Le performed all over the world, but she has held masterclasses throughout North America, the UK, Europe, the Middle East, and Asia.
Jim “Kimo” West: Inspired by the beautiful Hawaiian landscapes of Hana and Maui and the sounds of the islands, West was drawn to Hawaii’s iconic guitar style, “ki ho’alu” or “slack key guitar,” which is a way of loosely tuning the guitar to get a defined pitch to one or more of the strings.
Lulo Reinhardt: The grand-nephew of the legendary jazz guitarist Django Reinhardt, who has carried on the family’s jazz tradition while incorporating new Latin rhythms, a style he calls Latin Swing.

Proof of vaccination or negative test and masks are required.
