Ben Sher is a unique jazz guitarist. Fluent in the classic jazz tradition of Wes Montgomery, Kenny Burrell, and George Benson, Ben also draws from the rich Brazilian guitar tradition of Baden Powell ,Raphael Rabello and Joao Gilberto. Ben combines standard jazz plectrum technique, with classical fingerstyle, to create a wide range of sounds and textures.
Ben has three recordings as a leader on BGI Records: Handprints, is contemporary mainstream jazz featuring the great drummer from the Hernbie Hancock and the Headhunter..s group Mike Clark, pianist Bruce Barth , and Dennis Irwin. TudoBem.. and ..Please Take me to Brasil.. are Brazilian jazz featuring Ben..s group TudoBem and special guest Fred Hersch (on TudoBem) and Kenny Barron (on ..Please Take Me....). Go to http://www.bgirercords.com to hear excerpts from these recordings. "Here's a couple of things from our upcoming release, the title track from my last recording, and a solo guitar piece that I recorded in my home studio. Let me know what you think!"
