Stan Lassiter In Other Words…

"Lassiter’s latest release, The Rose and the Nightingale, embodies his spontaneous, free fall aestheticism. It’s a bold solo effort, consisting primarily of first takes on acoustic and solo electric." 
Guitar Player Magazine

'Stan Lassiter is not only considered Nashville’s premier jazz guitarist, his reputation now marks him as among the most accomplished young jazz pickers in the country.
Nashville Banner    

'This impressive native son of the Country Music Mecca has won the praises of notables George Benson, Allan Holdsworth, Steve Morse, and Steve Vai. This able performer will steal your heart while he steals the show with his premium performance."                                             
West Coast Country Music Reporter 
                                                                                          
"He has a brilliance and style all his own, and he never misses a note. His fingers fly, the notes fly, and you can’t help but notice how involved Stan becomes with his guitar."    
The Metro Music Magazine          

"Lassiter specializes in sheets of sound tempered by crying, lyrical melodies. His original, burning instrumental style is on par with that of Joe Satriani, Shawn Lane, and Marc Bonilla. Ah, but few electric players can wrest such sweet tones from a classical guitar’s unforgiving nylon strings."
Guitar Player Magazine

"For years, Stan Lassiter has been Nashville’s premier jazz guitarist. His style is frequently frenetic, blending a variety of styles and techniques, often rapidly switching styles within a piece."  
Brian Mansfield

"High energy jazz/rock reminiscent of Allan Holdsworth, but with more of a central structure and a rock grove gyroscope…frenetic licks that seemingly go out of control, yet never forsake their intent. The rhythm section of Armstrong and Vogt are solid, inventive, and hang tight with their leader."
