About Me |
|
| Teja Gerken is no stranger to those familiar with the Bay Area acoustic guitar scene. Born in Germany, but calling San Francisco home, he is a seasoned performer, and has shared the stage with players such as Alex de Grassi, Henry Kaiser, and John Renbourn, as well as with his mentor, Peppino DAgostino. Gerkens playing blends myriad influences into a musical style that hovers around the perimeters of folk, contemporary classical, and world music, often involving alternate tunings, right-hand tapping, and percussive effects. Gerkens latest CD Postcards is featured on KFOGs Acoustic Sunrise list of Favorite new CDs of 2005. Teja Gerken is also on the editorial staff of Acoustic Guitar magazine. |

Sabine and Teja |
|
| I've been having lots of fun playing guitar with my daughter, Sabine. We usually bang around my little Larrivee Parlor, but no matter what guitar I play, she generally wants to be part of the action. Posted by on Wed, 03 Jan 2007 13:52:00 GMT |
