Jack West - Percussive Acoustic Guitar
Information
Street level entrance
Acoustic guitarist, composer and inventor Jack West creates highly rhythmic, modern acoustic music. With his innovative percussive approach, West simultaneously plays drums, bass and guitar parts, blending American folk, jazz, and rock into a unique, compelling new style of acoustic music in the vein of Leo Kottke, David Grisman, Rodrigo y Gabriela, or Michael Hedges. What makes West’s playing unique is his seamless integration of percussive slapping with infectious grooves that leave room for improvisation. Jack West celebrates the release of a highly praised album ‘Guitars on Life’ (January 2026): "Deliciously funky" (AllAboutJazz), "Riveting, exhilarating" (TheAbsoluteSound), "Jaw-dropping joyride" (Downbeat), "Bracingly creative" (AllMusic.com).
