In addition to acoustic and electric guitars, he is also regularly featured on the saxophone, clarinet, bouzouki, pedal steel, mandolin, vocals and has garnered recognition for contributing to numerous platinum-selling and GRAMMY-winning albums.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span id=\"internal-source-marker_0.7826180646661669\">Currently touring as the John Jorgenson Quintet, Jorgenson creates a unique musical experience that equally enthralls the most discerning and the casual music fan. The group\u2019s style has been called \u201cgypsy jazz\u201d after the dynamic string-driven swing created by Django Reinhardt and Stephane Grappelli in 1930s Paris, but Jorgenson\u2019s compositions draw in elements from Latin, Romanian, Classical, Rock and Greek music, so \u201c21st Century World Music\u201d is perhaps a more apt description.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-587567\" src=\"https:\/\/alwaysmountaintime.com\/kske\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2015\/05\/swan.jpg\" alt=\"swan\" width=\"440\" height=\"640\" srcset=\"https:\/\/alwaysmountaintime.com\/kske\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2015\/05\/swan.jpg 440w, https:\/\/alwaysmountaintime.com\/kske\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2015\/05\/swan-206x300.jpg 206w, https:\/\/alwaysmountaintime.com\/kske\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2015\/05\/swan-245x357.jpg 245w, https:\/\/alwaysmountaintime.com\/kske\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2015\/05\/swan-332x483.jpg 332w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 440px) 100vw, 440px\" \/><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-605649\" src=\"https:\/\/alwaysmountaintime.com\/kske\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2015\/08\/john-jorgenson-band-3.jpg\" alt=\"john-jorgenson-band-3\" width=\"800\" height=\"534\" srcset=\"https:\/\/alwaysmountaintime.com\/kske\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2015\/08\/john-jorgenson-band-3.jpg 800w, https:\/\/alwaysmountaintime.com\/kske\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2015\/08\/john-jorgenson-band-3-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/alwaysmountaintime.com\/kske\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2015\/08\/john-jorgenson-band-3-700x467.jpg 700w, https:\/\/alwaysmountaintime.com\/kske\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2015\/08\/john-jorgenson-band-3-535x357.jpg 535w, https:\/\/alwaysmountaintime.com\/kske\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2015\/08\/john-jorgenson-band-3-724x483.jpg 724w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Copper Mountain hosts three FREE days of the world&#8217;s best guitarists come together for the 11th annual Guitar Town, with live performances, guitar &amp; songwriting workshops and kids music activities.
