Details:
Pete Gonzales
My musical roots go back to playing guitar at a Catholic Church in Phoenix, Arizona in the early 80's. Later, I became a full time music student and decided to major in music education with emphasis in Jazz and Classical Guitar performance at Arizona State University. After leaving the college music scene altogether, I played mostly in churches with a few gigs at weddings, festivals etc. I did this for many years until 2000 when the Chapman Stick Bug bit me! Since that time I've found a whole new world of musical expression! I love playing Guitar and Chapman Stick, but the Stick has brought me a whole new approach to performance and composition.
