Sandy Shalk
Alexander ("Sandy") Shalk has been performing on guitar for over 40 years. His music has ranged from ensemble work as a member of popular bands in the Delaware area to presenting powerful, jazz-tinged Celtic pieces on solo guitar in concert and recording settings. He has gained accolades from guitarists, other musicians, and general audiences for his groundbreaking jazz, Celtic, and pop arrangements on guitar. He plays comfortably in a variety of guitar tunings, including the DADGAD tuning invented by the late Davy Graham, and brought by Sandy to another level in the jazz idiom.
His website is: http://www.sandyshalk.com/
Sandy released in April 2014 a solo guitar CD called "Newer Every Day," which is a seminal recording of jazz, folk, and Celtic tunes in alternative tunings.
Sandy has been honored by being asked by Stefan Grossman to record three DVD guitar lessons for Stefan Grossman's Guitar Workshop. You may contact Sandy directly for purchase of those lessons, or buy them through the Workshop website: http://www.guitarvideos.com/
