Double-neck 18-string guitar player extraordinaire Ian Ethan Case will play at the Norton Buffalo Hall in Paradise on Sunday, April 15, 2018 at 7PM. One of only five musicians worldwide to tackle the instrument in earnest, Case has invented a variety of playing techniques that provide a musical vocabulary to take double-neck guitar music into a whole new realm. Not only does Case deliver the goods musically, seeing him perform live is a visually astounding experience. He combines modern techniques of tapping and slapping the instrument with a dizzyingly dexterous dance of hands, a pas de deux that leaps back and forth between twelve strings and six. Case’s composerly and rambunctious approach to the instrument weaves in several genre influences – minimalism, funk, new-age, jazz, rock, and Celtic, to name a few. But Case goes beyond delivering mere virtuosity and range of style by providing original compositions that are rich, heartfelt and powerfully uplifting. Case has been compared to Michael Hedges and Pat Metheny, and according to music critic Andreas Schiffman: “will probably be rightly regarded as one of the most innovative guitarists of our time.” Doors open at 6:30PM. Seating is limited.
