On December 7 at 7:00pm, guitar legend Peter Sprague will perform a duo set with longtime creative partner, vocalist Leonard Patton. One of the central figures in San Diego’s jazz scene since the late 1970s, Peter Sprague is revered worldwide for his mastery of the jazz guitar and his original musical style. Among his fans are Pat Metheny, who called Peter, “A great musician who also happens to be a great guitar player” and Chick Corea, who called him, “an amazingly creative artist.” For this live stream set he is joined by San Diego-based vocalist Leonard Patton, who also doubles on hand percussion. Peter and Leonard always offer high-spirited music of the highest caliber that is sure to delight!
Peter wrote, “Leonard and I team up to play music that jumps around jazz, samba, The Beatles, Hendrix, Americana, James Taylor, Stevie Wonder and Bob Marley. We frequently start one song, make up some new sonic material, create some loops and then attempt a safe landing in another aural vista. Freedom is one of the perks of being just a duo. We've released an album called "Dream Walkin'" and it was nominated for the Best Jazz Recording at the 2015 San Diego Music Awards.”
