Charlie Hunter Trio
Charlie Hunter performed with his trio on Thursday, November 6, at 7 p.m. at the Blue LLama Jazz Club in Ann Arbor. He’s known for playing a custom eight-string guitar that lets him cover both bass and guitar parts simultaneously.
Growing up near San Francisco in the ’80s, guitarist Charlie Hunter developed a unique style inspired by players like Joe Pass and Tuck Andress, blending bass notes and guitar melodies. His breakthrough came with a custom Novax eight-string guitar designed to separate bass and guitar signals, allowing him to play both at once by using his thumb for basslines and fingers for chords and melodies. He showcased this innovative technique at his Blue LLama Jazz Club show.
