So while some of you are holiday, we’re deep in the ‘shed with a ton of activity in the works here at TrueFire. Find out about our biggest transformation from Tommy Jamin, who spills the beans on the big news. Plus, TrueFire educators Laurence Juber and Jon Finn share their perspectives and inspiration.

Andy Aledort brings us an exclusive interview with legend Ritchie Blackmore. His podcast, Audio Chronicles, will put you right in the studio with the two of them for unprecedented access. And speaking of Andy, this time, the tables are turned and he is in the hot seat with his interview!

We revisit another sweet edition of Shane Theriot’s column and audio podcast, Riff Raff. Shane spends some time hanging with incredible players and musicians and brings his own humor and spark to the interview…trust us…you will hang on every word! This time he hangs with Mike Stern and believe me…you won’t want to miss it!

Lessons are king, of course, so join us for a sweet lineup from David Becker, Erich Andreas, Andrew Ford, Doug Munro and Rob Garland.

So whether you’re at the beach, kids camp or hanging out after mowing the back ’40 Riff is here for you to spice up your summer heatwave!
