About Me

About jazz guitarist Justin Perdue:
I’m working with a trio featuring Jeremy Harlos (bass) and Travis Shores (drums), playing original compositions.

I’ve been playing professionally since the late 80s, appearing at venues from the Knitting Factory and Vision Festival to the Burlington Jazz Festival and the University of Madison Wisconsin. I’ve recorded and performed with Arthur Brooks, the So-Called Jazz Sextet, Jack Wright, and have worked & toured with the Middlebury College Dance Co.

In addition to jazz guitar work in combo settings (trio recordings here feature Harlos and Shores), I’ve also composed and recorded works with guitar synthesizer and computers, and co-led several funk bands.

choosing not to pick

In pursuit of the tone - namely the sound of Wes Montgomery - I abandoned using a pick several years ago. While it has is drawbacks when I'm looking to strum (especially in say a funk context) I'm a c...

notes on tuning in fourths

Influenced by the chord voicings employed by McCoy Tyner and the harmonic patterns used by John Coltrane, I began tuning his guitar in fourths (E-A-D-G-C-F, low to high) in 1990. Initially, this wa...
