DAYTONA BEACH, Fla. (Feb. 10, 2015) – Four of the nation’s, if not the world’s, top guitar wizards will converge on Daytona State College’s News-Journal Center in beautiful downtown Daytona Beach, Fla., April 17-19 to share their techniques during the college’s first-ever Nashville Guitar Camp.
Hosted by Daytona State’s Mike Curb College of Music, Entertainment and Art and its Center for Business & Industry, the camp’s focus aims at helping students and aspiring guitar professionals of intermediate to advanced skills reach a higher level of play.
The camps will be led by Nashville guitar icons Pat Bergeson, Richard Smith and Guthrie Trapp, each world-renowned in the music industry for their mastery and particular style of play. Joining them will be jazz guitar great Barry Greene.
“This is a great opportunity for any serious guitar enthusiast interested in learning new skills and techniques from four of the best ax men around,” said Jake Niceley, assistant chair of the Mike Curb College and head of Daytona State’s Associate of Science in Music Production Technology program. “These are world-class guitar players who want to be a part of our program. They are attracted by the sophistication of our facility, the fact that our academic program focuses on high-level music production and, most of all, by the caliber of our students.”
The college’s News-Journal Center is a two-theater venue featuring the most cutting-edge technology available within its two production studios, rehearsal and isolation rooms.
