Robert Jones

Born in New York City, Robert Jones spent his formative years in Spain where he began playing guitar at age 13. Robert's unique style of playing can be traced back to those years in Spain where he immersed himself in a variety of styles including classical, jazz, pop, traditional Spanish and Flamenco.

After working professionally in Europe for a number of years, Robert relocated back to New York where he spent his time studying at Brooklyn College, performing with local bands and composing original material.

In the 1990s, Robert moved to Northern California and expanded upon his musical career by adding teaching to his many musical endeavors. It was here that he decided to focus on solo performance, developing a unique musical style.

Today Robert is active as an instructor, composer and performer. His distinctive interpretations on acoustic and electric guitars often propel well-known melodies into new exciting territories. Audiences are fascinated by his innovative use of the looping technique, a process that creates the sound of 2 or 3 guitar players at once. Robert offers a playing style that combines the familiar with the new, pleasing listeners and showcasing the talents of a master musician.
