Live Stage: Extensible Electric Guitar Web Simulcast [
Worcester, MA]
The eXtensible Electric Guitar Festival is set to begin tonight, and runs April 4-5 at Clark University in Worcester, MA USA.
Since its development in the mid-twentieth century, the electric guitar has had a profound influence on many aspects of music, creating new sounds, spurring the development of new musical styles, and reshaping concepts of musicianship. In the early twenty first century, despite retaining its iconic status as a symbol of innovation and transgression, the electric guitar and its uses now seem commonplace, almost routine; in short, the instrument may be in danger of losing its edge. The Extensible Electric Guitar Festival aims to rediscover and showcase the electric guitar’s spirit of innovation and exploration. More information and the schedule of events.
For those that can’t be at the festival in person, arrangements have been made to broadcast the two concerts of the Festival live on the web. Please pass this link on to anyone that you think might be interested in joining them from afar.
