Akron’s own Neil Zaza is bringing his melodically charged brand of instrumental guitar heroics to the intimate cabaret setting of the Civic stage. Hot off the release of his latest release “Peach”, this special performance will feature new material from that project as well as the songs and techniques that have made him a defining voice of modern day guitar playing around the world.

“I’m so excited to play my hometown and the Akron Civic Theatre in this very intimate setting. In that, the band is working up a great new set of tunes drawing from Peach as well as hitting all the tunes you already know and hopefully want to hear. I’m especially stoked as given the intimate seating and format of the concert; I can really have some fun and tell some stories, talk about the tunes and make it a much more personal experience for all in attendance. This is going to be a special one!”

This will be one of the final US concerts before Neil leaves out on a three month overseas tour starting in China.

His guitar playing has defined modern day instrumental guitar the world over. His melodic compositions have not only changed the way musicians play, but what audiences demand out of their guitar heroes. To see Ohio native Neil Zaza’s influential impact on guitar across the globe, merely tune into the legion of thousands of fanatical fans performing his international hit, “I’m Alright” on YouTube. Neil’s trademark “singing” and lyrical guitar style is easily recognizable and can only belong to one man: Neil Zaza.

With limited seating available for this event, this concert is a sure sell out. Don’t miss seeing this guitar master in this intimate and up-close setting on the historic Akron Civic Theatre stage. Please reserve your seat early.
