About this event
Main Floor New Books Area. Join us in the New Books area for a performance by Peter Neri. This performance is free and open to all. In the 1970s, Peter Neri began playing the electric guitar in Connecticut rock groups that opened for some nationally known acts. When his bands broke up, Peter moved West and performed in a band and also as a solo folk/blues performer in California and Montana. Since then, Peter has released three CDs of all original solo guitar instrumentals. He has also written and performed as both an electric and acoustic guitarist on some currently streaming TV shows. With such a rich background of musical experiences, Peter now plays acoustic guitar in a style that is a marriage of many disciplines. Peter cites the following diverse group of guitarists as major musical influences on his playing style: Leo Kottke, Eric Clapton, Christopher Parkening, Preston Reed, Chet Atkins, Keola Beamer, Tommy Emmanuel and Michael Hedges. “Largely working from open and altered tunings, Neri creates musical impressions”- Minor 7th Peter also hosts a weekly radio show on WFVR.org called “One Guitar” highlighting other solo guitar instrumentalists from all over the world.
