In this Spring edition, we’ll be spending some time with artists like Andy Timmons, Cathy Fink & Marcy Marxer, Shane Theriot, Tony Smotherman and Corey Congilio. Andy Aledort launches his Audio Chronicles series, where he presents exclusive audio interview with inspiring players from his vault. He kicks off the series with Jeff Beck who talks Clapton, Hendrix and his early Yardbird days.
Riff wouldn’t be complete without an awesome lineup of educational lessons. Frank Vignola, Jamie Andreas, Maurice Arenas, Scott Allen and Kelly Richey show us the ropes across a variety of musical genres and theoretical concepts.
From the studio, we delve into the quest for tone with AccuGroove’s Marc Cooper. Plus, we explore today’s music business with Robert Williams who presents his 10 Guiding Principles for artists today. Whatever your bag, all of these TrueFire artists and educators inspire us and they are living proof that the music business is very much alive and well. This issue of RIFF is filled with their stories, their insight, and their sound advice.
