Vince Gill And Guitar Center Contest Winners To Perform At Nashville Show
Vince Gill is playing a special show at Nashville’s 3rd & Lindsley with five young up-and-coming guitar talents from around the country on Wednesday (1/16).
“Vince Gill and 5 Guitar Players He’s Crazy About” will feature performances by Claudio Tristano, Justus West, Stephan Hogan, Tony Pierce of Pierce Avenue and Arielle, all who were participants in the Guitar Center’s OnStage contest held in Los Angeles in 2016.
Tristano, the winner of the competition, was awarded an opening slot on one of Gill’s tour dates. In true Gill form, he extended his generosity to the remaining four competitors as well, and eventually the concept evolved into one joint concert.
