San Francisco guitar poet Brian Gore is gaining a reputation as one of the most interesting and influential performers of "the next generation" in fingerstyle guitar. A musical romantic, his compositions draw inspiration from myth and modern literature. Brian is the founder of International Guitar Night, an all-virtuoso tour that we're excited to bring to The Ark. For the January/February 2012 IGN U.S. tour, Brian is joined by England's Adrian Legg, Germany's Lulo Reinhardt, and Marco Pereira from Brazil. Adrian is a legend for the variety of styles and sounds he coaxes from his custom electric guitar. Lulo is a master showman, flavoring the gypsy swing of his legendary forebear Django Reinhardt with his unique style of Latin music. Marco is a multi-dimensional virtuoso, with a repertoire ranging from lightning-fast percussive compositions to samba to classic Brazilian waltzes. Don't be surprised to see some unique virtuoso collaborations on stage!
