RICHARD ROZZE’S TOTAL ELECTRIC GUITAR SHOW
RICHARD ROZZE’S TOTAL ELECTRIC GUITAR SHOW – THE VESTRY HALL – SATURDAY 7TH SEPTEMBER – 6.45 PM
Richard Rozze is an electric and acoustic guitarist, vocalist, composer and arranger. His musical influences are classic British rock, blues, jazz, Celtic and bluegrass music. He cites his first guitar teacher, Jeff Alexander, who he met at eleven years old, as his major influence. Jeff encouraged him to explore guitarists such as Gary Moore, Paul Kossoff, Eric Johnson, Peter Green, Pierre Bensusan.
Later at the Guildhall School of Music and Drama in London, Richard studied a Masters in Jazz. Musicians such as Miles Davis, Pat Metheny, John Abercrombie, Wes Montgomery and Jim Hall lead him to a deeper passion for improvisation.
His latest album ‘Lion’ was released in September 2023 and includes bassist Jonathan Noyce (ex Jethro Tull/Gary Moore) and drummer Simon Lea (Dianne Warwick, Ronnie Wood). “An album that shows the possibilities of an artist who presents a distinctive personal conception of the music he plays, in order to distinguish himself from the rest of the actual blues rock performers.” ~ lahoradelblues.com
