Here's a guy that some of you may not know about: Ben Prestage. He plays often as a one-man band, and he's really got it: the magic funky southern groove. An under-the-radar guy, but making quite a stir down there.
I have been fortunate to have played with Ben a few times-he's always playing in the area-Florida-very talented musician,and super nice guy. Thomas Fiacco III
I remember seeing Ben with a harp player (can't remember his name...I wan't to say like Hawkins maybe) playing as a duo at The Bamboo Room in Lake Worth Fla probably late 90's. Back then I was just blown away as to how unbelievably cool his guitar playing was. Nice post Adam
"Ben Prestage is currently touring with Ian Siegal in the UK - they're at Dingwalls, London tomorrow night"
I was wondering whether or not to go myself, got asked by a friend to come along if I could get a ticket on the door. having seen this thread I'll definitely bop along now, really great musician looking forward to seeing him live now. ---------- "imagination is more important then knowledge" - Albert Einstien
perspective plays a huge role in all of this. id just like to play with a blues guitarist who really, really knew what he was doing, regardless of fame. my boys are rockers...(sigh) ---------- Kyzer's Travels Kyzer's Artwork
One more of Chris Duarte playing an awesome version of the Star Spangled Banner...and a humourous handling of some guy who insisted on singing along loudly.
