Geoff AchisonEqual parts New Orleans Funk, driving Blues, jazzy Soul and outback Mojo, this is southern blues/roots music from the very deepest South – Australia. Voted one of the “Top Ten Hottest New Guitarists” by Guitar Player Magazine in 2011! He’s been a 16 year Guest Guitar Instructor at Jorma Kaukonen's Fur Peace Guitar Ranch and an exciting festival favorite. Featured on PBS, NPR and CNN. His frequent tours of the US have seen him playing with folks like The Allman Brothers (Geoff voted the #1 guest at the Beacon 2012 run by Relix Magazine), George Porter, Jr., Randall Bramblett, Yonrico Scott, Kofi Burbridge and many others.“Achison seems more like a singer/songwriter’s soul in Jeff Beck’s body. He should take his stature in the musical community to the next level with this disc.” Elmore MagazineGeoff is one of the finest blues guitarists I know with a completely individual style.
