?It is one thing to attain popularity as a musician, but it is another to receive the kind of acclaim Metheny has garnered from critics and peers. Over the years, Metheny has won countless polls as "Best Jazz Guitarist" and awards, including three gold records for Still Life (Talking), Letter from Home, and Secret Story. He has also won 20 Grammy Awards in 12 different categories including Best Rock Instrumental, Best Contemporary Jazz Recording, Best Jazz Instrumental Solo, Best Instrumental Composition. The Pat Metheny Group won an unprecedented seven consecutive Grammies for seven consecutive albums. Metheny has spent most of his life on tour, averaging between 120-240 shows a year since 1974. At the time of this writing, he continues to be one of the brightest stars of the jazz community, dedicating time to both his own projects and those of emerging artists and established veterans alike, helping them to reach their audience as well as realizing their own artistic visions.

About the Tribute performers:
Bulgarian-born and San Francisco-based impressionistic chamber jazz guitarist and composer Hristo Vitchev has been called one of the newest and most innovative voices in modern jazz guitar. Captivating audiences across the globe, the musician has already released seven critically acclaimed albums as bandleader, plus four releases as a co-leader.
Rick Vandivier is a luminary in the San Francisco Bay jazz scene. The San Jose Mercury (9/7/17) wrote "Vandivier has been a steady force as a player and teacher, and he's never sounded better than on his new album "Under One Roof" (Avatar Productions). JazzQuad (10/4/17) says "Rick's guitar reigns unchallenged on this album." JazzWeek certified that Under One Roof was one of the albums "most added" nationwide to jazz radio stations in their October 9th listing. Rick has performed with the likes of Smith Dobson, David Grisman, Albert ”Tootie” Heath, Dr. Lonnie Smith, and Carl Saunders.
Recently proclaimed the San Francisco Area’s #1 jazz guitarist, Terrence Brewer is an in-demand bandleader, producer, performer, studio musician, and music educator. He has performed to sold-out crowds at the Monterey Jazz Festival, Yoshi’s, and the San Francisco Jazz Festival. Brewer has also produced eight albums that have had several top ten appearances on the national jazz charts.
Anchoring the rhythm section along with these three masterful guitarists are Gary Brown on bass and Lorca Hart on drums. Over the past 20 years, Gary has performed with Flora Purim & Airto, Pharaoh Sanders, Jeff Beal, Steve Winwood, Narada Michael Walden, Dianne Reeves, Lou Rawls, Ernie Watts, and many others. He is part of a movie production team and much more you can learn at: http://www.mellowtonemusic.com. "...one of our fave drummers.." Brick Wahl, "Brick's Pick's" of LA Weekly writes about Lorca Hart. Lorca has performed with Ralph Moore, Carmen Lundy, Freddie Hubbard, Calvin Keys, Stanley Jordan, Craig Handy, Kyle Eastwood, Herman Riley, Azar Lawrence, Red Holloway, Plas Johnson, John Heard, Danny Grissett, Justo Almario, Bennie Maupin and many others.
