Modern Guitarist: A musician who abides by a genre-less and boundary-less agenda. A free-willed improviser who listens well but isn’t afraid to act or instigate new ideas. A musician void of competition. A musician open to communal collaboration. A modern guitarist is an explorer of electronic technology past and present. A modern guitarist is a student of global melodies and rhythms. (Mike Michel aka Bill Mike: Curator of The Modern Guitar Festival)

Huddled within the Cedar will be some of Minnesota’s finest guitarists, creating their unearthly sounds and memorable melody from six little strings.
