Happy 3rd Birthday to Pearl! Tonight we kick off a 3-night jazz and blues jubilee to celebrate our 3rd year... FREE! Rick Yost opening

Geoff Bartley is a blues-, folk- and jazz-influenced acoustic guitarist, singer, songwriter and harmonica player. The folk press has called him folk music at its best, a brilliant songwriter, a world-class guitarist, a local legend and the prophet and spiritual godfather of the Boston folk scene, all of which Geoff takes with a grain of salt. In the 1980s, Geoff won four guitars at the National Fingerpicking Championships hosted by the Walnut Valley Festival in Winfield, Kansas. In addition to his own shows, Geoff plays guitar and sings harmony for topical songwriter and folk icon Tom Paxton. Geoff was also instrumental in bringing the Tom Paxton Signature Model Martin guitar into production in 2004. Acoustic guitar instrumentals and songs Geoff has written have been used on the History Channel, Animal Planet, A&E, the Learning Channel, the Discovery Channel, National Geographic, Nature on PBS .... "Geoff Bartley is the juju master of the guitar." ~ David Wilcox

Damn! In three days I have to open up (which means perform in front of) Geoff Bartley! Picture doing whatever you do, in front of someone who you know does it many, many times better. And I haven't picked up my guitar to practice in almost a week. I'm doomed!

Eh, we'll know you'll do great. You just gotta do what you do every night you play.
