Text us about this show.Greg Koch is undeniably one of the best guitarists on the planet today. He's well versed in a plethora of styles that he doesn't just play technically well, but with feeling and touch that leaves the listener in awe. His knowledge of guitars and who knows how many influential guitarists from a breadth of genres is deep. Very deep. His videos on YouTube, especially the ones he does for Wildwood Guitars, aren't just jaw droppingly good for his playing (with some gristle, of course), but they come with a good dose of humor that pulls you in even further. Most of all, Greg is genuine. The guy you'll hear in this episode is the same here, on social media, and when you see him live.

We love “Cult of Personality” because it's one of the hardest hitting riffs in the classic rock canon. Catch it on drivetime radio and it'll get your heart pumping faster than an extra double-shot of espresso. But we also love it because it launched Vernon Reid's guitar into the mainstream. We're unpacking Reid's playing—from his early days in the NYC jazz underground through his work with Living Colour and into supergroup superstardom—and his longstanding gear-acquisition-syndrome.Supported by Reverend Guitars: https://reverendguitars.comGet at us: 100guitarists@premierguitar.com Call/Text: 319-423-9734Podcast powered by Sweetwater.

Rick Vito Live on Game Changers with Vicki Abelson What a lovely way to spend a sunny afternoon. Grammy-nominated guitarist, singer, and producer, Rick Vito, probably best known as a member of Fleetwood Mac, was a sunny delight, hisself. Coming to us Live from Franklin TN, following the release of his recently dropped latest album, Cadillac Man, we wiled away the hour talking his tastes… The Stones, Duane Eddy, BB King, his passions, Jimi Hendrix, Peter Green, his custom guitars, and his history… a 41-year marriage, two great kids, starting out with Delaney and Bonnie and Eric Clapton, what a story there! Moving to LA, crashing with Todd Rundgren, Something/Anything? Could I have played that album more freshman year? John Prine's Common Sense… oh please! An all-time favorite! Bonnie Raitt, Jackson Browne, with our friends Russ Kunkel and Kootch, Bob Seger, and that idea of Rick's to play slide on Like a Rock, a tasty choice that would become an iconic anthem for Chevrolet and a generation. A great story about meeting John Fogerty, playing with Leon Russell, touring with Tina Turner, picking it up with Mick in the Mick Fleetwood Blues Band with Rick Vito, and getting nominated for a Grammy, and the last great show before the pandemic alongside Christine McVie (in her final performance), Billy Gibbons, Pete Townsend, David Gilmour, Bill Wyman, John Mayall, and a host of other musical luminaries in Mick Fleetwood & Friends Celebrate the Music of Peter Green concert filmed in London in 2020. We were treated to a glimpse of one of Rick Vito's Soul Agent Signature Custom Designed Art Deco Guitars which is available from Reverend Guitars. This pink beauty with black and white piping, Rick designed to have attributes of a Gibson, a Fender, and a Gretch. Rick's new album, Cadillac Man, is available now and has been on heavy rotation in the Snicki Mobile. I'm just loving it. A lotta rock n roll, heavy on the R & B. You can get yours here: https://www.rickvito.com It's easy to see why Rick's been in demand by so many diverse and stellar artists. He's a stunning talent, who plays from his soul, leaving space between the notes, and warmth within his smile. I can't wait to hear and see more!

Today we talk to Fiona Silver about her tour with Gary Clark Jr., her songwriting process, outfits and influences. We also do some Music Trivia between Fiona and Mike (at the end) ABOUT FIONA SILVER: Fiona Silver is a pixie-sized powerhouse, born and bred in New York City, with a take no prisoners punk ethic. Silver is not only a singer, but also a songwriter, producer, guitarist and, “rockstar, period.” [Beautiful Savage Magazine] Her evocative artistry encompasses the doe-eyed playfulness of 1960s girl groups (a nod to one of her personal mentors, Ronnie Spector), along with strains of vintage soul, edgy pop, and gritty Rock N Roll. Her latest EP, Hostage of Love, is a masterstroke both vulnerable and rebellious. Inspired by events from her tumultuous life, filled with dire beauty and vital sorrow, Fiona has emerged as the dynamic artist she is today, mesmerizing audiences with an essence of seductive charm and a captivating innocence. After touring with 4x Grammy Winner Gary Clark Jr. Fiona Silver continues to rise upon the music scene. Legendary Rock 'N Roll DJ Rodney Bingenheimer (who broke bands like Joan Jett and the Ramones) premiered Silver's songs on KROQ and Sirius XM, calling her music “beyond amazing.” Silver has the added distinction of being endorsed by Telefunken Microphones, Reverend Guitars and Luna Guitars. Since the release of her debut album Little Thunder, Silver has also released a slew of singles, toured extensively throughout North America, opened for the Black Pumas, Andrew W. K., performed with Carlos Santana, and most recently accompanied Gwen Stefani for NBC's New Year's Eve special, and “Christmas in Rockefeller Center” Special. On Valentine's Day 2020 Silver released her highly anticipated EP ‘Hostage of Love,' and celebrated with a packed headlining show at Brooklyn Bowl.

Rick is an often unsung hero in the guitar universe, playing some of rock's most classic solos on records that didn't bear his own name on the cover. He was a member of Fleetwood Mac, and the list of artists he's toured and recorded with is downright incredible (Bob Seger, Bonnie Raitt, John Prine, Roy Orbison, Dolly Parton, Jessie Colin Young, Steve Goodman, Roger McGuinn, Todd Rundgren and John Mayall - just to name a few!).

Hilary talks with Penny Haas (Reverend Guitars) about short scale basses and accessibility, working with Meshell Ndegeocello, Jen Wasner, and Mike Watt, and a pandemic escape to Brian May's butt muscles (you'll see!). PENNY'S BIO Penny Haas is the COO of Reverend Guitars, in charge of all social media and outside marketing, as well as the day-to-day operations at Reverend. She brings a civilized charm to the booth in contrast to the sometimes unruly behavior of Ken and Joe, and “makes the trains run on time”. Penny holds a Bachelor's Degree in Art History & Film, has been a pianist since 1981 and a guitarist since 1999. She's also a proud mom/step-mom of four.

Ken Haas owns and operates Reverend Guitars in Ohio, USA and we are happy to have him as a guest on the Couch Riffs podcast this episode! Reverend Guitars has been producing amazing guitars since the late 90s and I remember when they arrived on the scene, surprising folks with their alternative body construction and cool retro-futuristic shapes. I was always a fan and remain a fan. In this episode Ken tells us how he came to be involved with Reverend and makes a cool announcement concerning the Limited Edition release for 2020! I bought it on the spot, actually. Thanks for listening and supporting Couch Riffs, I really appreciate it.

Nu är vi igång på riktigt. De två gamla avsnitten som släpptes långt efter inspelning har lämnat systemet och det är återigen dags att ta upp tråden. I det här avsnittet, som är för långt för att publicera som ett enda avsnitt, diskuterar vi bland annat Reverend Guitars nya signaturmodell, med namnet Gristlemaster. För en gångs skull är vi relativt överens. Vi kör en kort lägescheck på gitarrbranschen och det som hänt under vår långa radioskugga. Avsnittets merpart tas dock upp av den eviga diskussionen om teknik och känsla. Har vi svaret? Ingen vet, men kul var det iallafall att diskutera (igen). Den makabra längden på inspelningen gör att vi väljer att släppa flera kortare avsnitt istället för ett enda Ben Hur-liknande monster. Håll till godo!
I vårt topphemliga kassavalv fanns ett tidigare osläppt avsnitt av Gitarrism. Detta avsnitt får markera vår återkomst i etern. Längden på det här avsnittet är dock för massivt för att släppas i ett enda stycke. Därför delar vi upp det i två delar. Inspelningsdatumet för avsnittet är 2018-04-17, men vi kör iallafall! En av sakerna som avhandlas är Axels, på den tiden, svåra vedermödor kring gitarrköp. Här blommar konstnären Axel Karlsson ut i full excentrism. Vi pratar även om Mats import och distribution av Reverend Guitars. För aktuell info kring detta hänvisar vi till www.classicdesign.se. Vid tidpunkten för inspelningen var PRS Silver Sky högaktuell och det passerade givetvis inte vår radar. Se detta som den totala guiden till Silver Sky. I vanlig ordning är detta ett sedvanligt oplanerat och splittrat avsnitt, precis som ni vill ha det! Vid det här laget är det inte lönt att lova er en snabb fortsättning, så vi gör inte det. I vilket fall som helst önskar vi er en trevlig lyssning.

To say that Brad Houser merely impacted my musical life is hardly true. He almost entirely put me on a course, in fact. I must've seen Critters Buggin' 25 times in Seattle in the 90s and when I couldn't find myself a guitar gig I got myself a bass gig. Brad was my guy. I even started a band with some friends that was our answer (read: attempted rip off) to Critters, an instrumental band consisting of my 3 different basses (4 and 5 string plus fretless), drums and a percussionist, and a clarinetist. So, yeah. Brad had an influence on me. And, as I've said a million times: playing the bass was one of the most important things I've ever done for my guitar playing. So, Brad eventually influenced my guitar playing by my estimations. Getting in to Critters opened doors for me to go back and listen to Miles, Herbie, and some other 70s stuff like Mahavishnu. Edie Brickell & The New Bohemians' debut album had a break out single, What I Am. As a young rock/metal kid it was unusual for me to get into something like that. I wasn't a Deadhead and only appreciated very few things outside of my preferred comfort zone. But not much. Later I realized a huge element to What I Am that drew me in was the interesting bass playing. There was something going on that I'd never heard before which was so musical, complex and busy but not overpowering. I loved it. The bass just didn't stand out in much music I was listening to. So, of course, when I eventually began playing bass I sought out Brad when I heard he lived in Seattle. We didn't get far in lessons, 2 or 3 I think. But, I went and watched him play a ton of Critters Buggin' shows. At one of our lessons he blew my mind when he told me he was taking an African dance class to help with his bass playing. I'd never heard someone speak of such a completely physical relationship to an instrument and performing on it. He became my benchmark bass player and though I knew I'd NEVER be the bassist he is I figured I had to sort out how to fool folks into thinking I belonged in a category of musicianship that he existed in......In this episode of Couch Riffs we talk about some of this stuff. PLUS, Brad's new signature bass coming out with Reverend Guitars. Brad and I stayed friendly over the years and when we would run into each other it was always fun and good to catch. So, when I saw the band was touring to support the new album (which is great) I was super excited to see the Brooklyn date. Brad agreed to appear on Couch Riffs and here are the results. Always great to catch up, Brad. Thank you so much and good luck with the new album and everything you do. --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/couch-riffs/message Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/couch-riffs/support

"Yeah, it’s heavily skewed towards the penis-having side of the musical world," Jenn Wasner says of the tradition of naming a guitar after a (typically male) artist, an honor recently bestowed upon her when Reverend Guitars created the JW-1. Wasner, well-known as one half of the band Wye Oak and now the sole writer, instrumentalist and singer of the solo project Flock of Dimes, stopped by Soul Sisters to talk about her stellar new LP If You See Me, Say Yes.
