Frank Vignola Quintet February 6, 2010

One of the premier acoustic jazz guitarists on the scene today, Frank Vignola has launched a new all-star group featuring some of the acoustic music scene's hottest young players. Mixing high-energy original material with new unique renditions of contemporary tunes by the likes of The Police, Frank Zappa, Black Sabbath and even Slayer, the quintet also taps into the standard songbook, creating unique interpretations of classic jazz tunes. Vignola and the band also tackle new arrangements of Bach and Mozart. It's a melding of contemporary gypsy jazz, bluegrass, toe-tapping swing, blues and acoustic rock, and great renditions of old standards.
