Over the years, Peter White has maintained a reputation as one of the most versatile and prolific acoustic guitarists on the contemporary jazz landscape. Armed with an unparalleled combination of lyricism and energy, he combines elements of jazz, pop and classical guitar to create a sound that is singular and at the same time accessible to a broad audience.
White released Here We Go in 2012 on Heads Up International, a
division of Concord Music Group. The 11-song set, produced by White and
DC (George Benson, Larry Carlton, Bob James, Patty Austin), featured
several high-profile guest musicians, including saxophonists David
Sanborn and Kirk Whalum, and pianist Philippe Saisse, and included a
range of original material written in the recent and distant past. “I
wanted variety,” says White. “I wanted songs that moved me, in the hopes
that they’ll move the listener as well. He's on a journey, and I want to
bring with me anyone who’s willing to follow.”
