John Etheridge has been at the top of the jazz and contemporary guitar world for over 30 years. His career has covered a huge range of musical territory combining powerful improvising, technique, a feel for idiom and an individual concept, which makes his output eclectic but highly personal.

Production details
He rightly enjoys a glowing reputation throughout the jazz world and beyond and has been described by Pat Metheny as, "one of the best guitarists in the world". But take away the famous names from Stephane Grappelli to Nigel Kennedy, turn off Soft Machine and John's solo concerts, show a glorious guitarist who is inspired by the trinity of Django Reinhardt, Wes Montgomery and Hank Marvin. Few of his peers handle an electric instrument with such delicacy. And whilst Etheridge combines a jazzman's sophistication with a folksy sense of drama, his penchant for simple, unaffected melodic lines makes him ideal company in a venue as intimate as Crazy Coqs and where he will play for three nights following his sell-out performances last year when he made his Crazy Coqs debut as part of the London Jazz Festival.
