Guthrie Govan & Nili Brosh with Jon Finn Band
July 26, 2009
Just spotted this cool video of Guthrie Govan playing ‘Wonderful Slippery’ thing at the 939 Cafe with Nili Brosh with the Jon Finn band backing, ‘Who is Nili Brosh?’ you ask? Well she’s an awesome guitarist studying at Berklee who did a fantastic version of the Larry Carlton solo a good while ago:
Looks like she got to play with her hero Guthrie! Very cool 
guitarmessenger.com – Guthrie Govan Interview!
July 26, 2009
Check out this great interview with Guthrie Govan over on guitarmessenger.com.
GG: Ok, yeah, let’s kill the album question now. It’s my New Year’s resolution to carve a lump out of my calendar and say ‘no’ to teaching and playing, and just hide in a room and be a crazy nerd and come out pale, brandishing an album that’s complete and full.
But it is tough in this line of work. You never know when a gig or a clinic or a tour or something like that is gonna come up. You generally just have to say ‘yes’ to everything. In the words of John Lennon, ‘life is what happens when you’re making other plans,’ so the album is very much the other plan. This year, I’m going to make sure it happens, because I want to hear the next album.
Also a little promo noodling from the man himself:
