Each of these guitarists has their own established and accomplished solo careers, and having them join together for a concert event like this is reminiscent of the old Windham Hill Concert Series. Multiple styles are explored, from New Age to Classical, Jazz to world, and from Americana to pop music.

His contemplative, melody-driven music can shift from a sweet solo fingerstyle guitar piece to a composition looping energetic world rhythms. Doug's music has been featured on numerous radio and TV programs including "Echoes," "River City Folk" and "Late Night with David Letterman." He connects well with his audience, whether it's through his musicianship, tales of the road, or simply his wry sense of humor. <a href="http://www.dougwoodmusic.com/">http://www.dougwoodmusic.com/</a> <br>VIDEO: <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mgiw5l83Hhk&feature=plcp">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mgiw5l83Hhk&feature=plcp</a> <o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal style='mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto;background:white'><span lang=EN style='font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif"'> <br><b>Darren Frate<br><br></b>Darren's innovative work on the bass is reminiscent of bass masters like Jaco Pastorius and Michael Manring. Using foot pedals and looping, he's able to create fully orchestrated melodic tunes live on stage. Nephew of James Gang bassist Dale Peters, Darren has performed across the world with various major groups. <a href="http://www.darrenfrate.com/">http://www.darrenfrate.com/</a> <br>VIDEO: <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MIwQ3X0g15o">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MIwQ3X0g15o</a> <o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal style='mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto;background:white'><span lang=EN style='font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif"'><br><b>Patrick Woods<br></b><br>The contrapuntal elements of Patrick's music have long been loved and revered by many fans of acoustic solo guitar. Ever since the age of 16, the Indiana native has been playing every kind of gig imaginable. He cites his main influences as Joe Satriani, Alex Lifeson (of Rush), and Preston Reed. Being more influenced by Progressive rock than acoustic music, Patrick has carved out his unique brand of up-tempo driving acoustic instrumentals that are complex enough for advanced musicians, but melodic enough for the simple music lover. His ambitious way of communicating on a single instrument won him second place in Guitar Player Magazine's 2006 GUITAR SUPERSTAR, in front of judges Joe Satriani and Steve Lukather. He has also played in other contests such as the National Winfield Competition, the Canadian Guitar Fest, and has been a semi-finalist in the Yamaha Six String Theory Competition. <a href="http://www.pwguitar.com">http://www.pwguitar.com</a> <br>VIDEO: <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RZoLVeEG_X4">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RZoLVeEG_X4</a> <o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><b><span style='font-size:10.0pt;color:#1F497D'>Kim Carrasquillo</span></b><span style='font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif";color:#1F497D'> </span><span style='font-size:10.0pt;color:#1F497D'>| Writer/Project Coordinator, Marketing and Outreach Initiatives</span><span style='font-size:10.0pt;color:#522C1C'><br></span><span style='font-size:10.0pt;color:gray'>Lorain County Community College</span><span style='font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif";color:gray'> </span><span style='font-size:10.0pt;color:gray'>| 1005 N Abbe Road</span><span style='font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif";color:gray'> </span><span style='font-size:10.0pt;color:gray'>| Elyria, Ohio 44035<br>t: 440.366.4822</span><span lang=FR style='font-size:10.0pt;color:gray'> f: 440.366.4113 e: </span><u><span lang=FR style='font-size:10.0pt;color:blue'><a href="mailto:kcarrasq@lorainccc.edu">kcarrasq@lorainccc.edu</a><o:p></o:p></span></u></p><p class=MsoNormal><span lang=FR style='font-size:10.0pt;color:gray'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><b><span style='font-size:4.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";color:#1F497D'><o:p> </o:p></span></b></p><p class=MsoNormal><b><span style='font-size:4.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";color:#1F497D'><o:p> </o:p></span></b></p><p class=MsoNormal><a href="http://www.lorainccc.edu/"><span style='color:#1F497D;text-decoration:none'><img border=0 width=25 height=25 id="Picture_x0020_1" src="cid:image001.jpg@01CF58BB.58169F80" alt="Description: Description: Description: Description: Description: \\fs01\Marketing\Full Time\Logo file\LCCC blue square only.jpg"></span></a><span style='color:#1F497D'> </span><a href="http://www.lorainccc.edu/up"><span style='color:#1F497D;text-decoration:none'><img border=0 width=25 height=25 id="Picture_x0020_2" src="cid:image002.jpg@01CF58BB.58169F80" alt="Description: Description: Description: Description: Description: UP Square"></span></a><span style='color:#1F497D'> </span><a href="http://facebook.com/lorainccc" target="_blank" title=Facebook><span style='font-size:8.0pt;font-family:"Verdana","sans-serif";color:#0059B2;text-decoration:none'><img border=0 width=25 height=25 id="Picture_x0020_3" src="cid:image003.png@01CF58BB.58169F80" alt="Description: Description: Description: Description: Description: Description: Facebook"></span></a><span style='font-size:8.0pt;font-family:"Verdana","sans-serif";color:#333333'> </span><a href="http://twitter.com/lorainccc" target="_blank" title=Twitter><span style='font-size:8.0pt;font-family:"Verdana","sans-serif";color:#0059B2;text-decoration:none'><img border=0 width=27 height=27 id="Picture_x0020_4" src="cid:image004.png@01CF58BB.58169F80" alt="Description: Description: Description: Description: Description: Description: Twitter"></span></a><span style='font-size:8.0pt;font-family:"Verdana","sans-serif";color:#333333'> </span><a href="http://www.youtube.com/lcccwebvideo" target="_blank" title=YouTube><span style='font-size:8.0pt;font-family:"Verdana","sans-serif";color:#0059B2;text-decoration:none'><img border=0 width=27 height=27 id="Picture_x0020_5" src="cid:image005.png@01CF58BB.58169F80" alt="Description: Description: Description: Description: Description: Description: YouTube"></span></a><span style='font-size:8.0pt;font-family:"Verdana","sans-serif";color:#333333'> </span><a href="http://www.linkedin.com/company/lorain-county-community-college" target="_blank" title=LinkedIn><span style='font-size:8.0pt;font-family:"Verdana","sans-serif";color:#0059B2;text-decoration:none'><img border=0 width=27 height=27 id="Picture_x0020_6" src="cid:image006.png@01CF58BB.58169F80" alt="Description: Description: Description: Description: Description: Description: LinkedIn"></span></a><span style='font-size:8.0pt;font-family:"Bradley Hand ITC";color:#333333'><o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p></div></body></html>
