Will Brahm with The Tim Ditty Trio

Will Brahm with The Tim Ditty Trio on Thursday, March 27 at The Wayfarer in Costa Mesa, CA!

Will Brahm is a guitarist and composer based in Los Angeles. His signature sound evokes the captivating melodic delivery of guitarists like Jeff Beck, paired with the heightened harmonic backdrop of guitarists like Pat Metheny. His instrument, the Green Stratocaster is the vessel in which he is able to be and sound his truest self in the many musical genres that he lives in. Spanning from Jazz to Rock to Americana, his songs tell stories while being completely wordless. Harmonic context is his narration.

Born and raised in Portland Oregon, Will fell in love with the Rock and Folk music of the Pacific Northwest from a young age. These influences show in his lyrical songwriting and dazzling guitar pyrotechnics. After graduating Cal State Long Beach with a bachelors degree in Jazz Guitar Performance in 2012, he joined The New West Guitars and began his touring career in 2015. He then joined world renowned jazz trumpeter Arturo Sandoval's band and continues to tour with him today. In 2019 Brahm released his acoustic ensemble album "Venture Atlas," showcasing his unique musical world-building abilities. Soon after this, he competed as a semi finalist in the Herbie Hancock International Guitar Competition.

Today Will tours with his own group, and continues to expand the sonic terrain of his music. His signature trio sound of piercing emotive melodies and lush chordal backdrops alongside bass and drums create a musical experience far greater than the sum of it's parts.
