Rob Chiavelli is a fingerstyle guitarist who has lived on both coasts – raised in Westchester County, New York and living in southern California since 1991. After a few guitar lessons at an early age Rob began to explore the guitar on his own. With a natural aversion to barre chords, he began experimenting with alternate tunings. This lead to an exploration of partial capos – even pulling out the o’Dremmel to modify a capo beyond what is commercially available. The result of all this experimenting and exploring: a batch of fine, fresh tunes, slightly raw but ready for listening. From his new album, Glean, we’re proud to present: Jasper and Carnelian, Segue and Soul’s Rest

With one guitar Peter captures beauty, passion,

A friend once told me, “if a person can write a piece a new music that makes someone smile, laugh or cry, that is something of value.” Peter has indeed accomplished something of great value. His audio draws from a deep well; fresh water, un-rushed, uncluttered, gently flowing.” You’ll find Binnacle, from the album Compass Rose.
