Jazz Alive continues its 3-part concert series at Easton's historic Waterfowl Building with Great Guitars: The DC Edition on Saturday, August 21 at 7pm.

In the tradition of the Great Guitars which included jazz guitarists Charlie Byrd, Herb Ellis, and Barney Kessel, jazz guitar prodigy Jan Knutson teams up with two of DCs guitar greats, Steve Abshire and 7 string guitarist Steve Herberman for a veritable jazz guitar fest!

"Steve Herberman exhibits a vast harmonic palette involving uncommon stretches on the fretboard along with a real capacity to burn on fluent single note lines... His sheer command of the instrument puts one in mind of such jazz guitar masters as Joe Pass, Joe Diorio, Lenny Breau, and Gene Bertoncini. His nuanced touch, excellent tone, tasteful, even phrasing and fresh writing style, further elevates Herberman far above the pack of other talented Berklee grads...definitely worth checking out for fans of advanced jazz guitar." - Bill Milkowski, JazzTimes

Steve Abshire has appeared in concert twice with the "Great Guitars". Once, back in the 1980's with Herb Ellis and Charlie Byrd, (filling in for Barney Kessel), and recently with Bucky Pizzarelli and Frank Vignola. A member of various Navy Bands for 24 years, Steve landed the position of guitarist/featured soloist with the Commodores, the U.S. Navy's premiere jazz ensemble, for 18 of those years until he retired in from the Navy in 1997. He can be found on numerous recordings, including six of his own. In 1987 his first recording, "Big Brass Bed Blues", received a 4 1/2-star rating from Downbeat Magazine, which called him "...fluent, assured, directly communicative . . . definitely one to watch".
