Garth Weber What do Miles Davis, Gregg Allman, Bill Champlin, Lydia Pense/Cold Blood, Merl Saunders, John Lee Hooker, Mose Allison, Boz Scaggs and Kingfish all have in common? Guitarist: GARTH WEBBER Long recognized by his peers for his dynamic style and technical dexterity, Webber is perhaps most highly regarded for his signature guitar tone. A first call player in the Jazz, Blues, Funk and Rock arenas, this Berkeley based musician is always in demand. Equally comfortable sharing the stage with Miles Davis as he is with John Lee Hooker, Webber has the unusual distinction of playing with people who are reknown for one specific style. On the international road, Garth has touredEurope and South America with Miles Davis; the good old U.S. with Bob Weir and Kingfish; and the West Coast with Gregg Allman, Lydia Pense & Cold Blood, Merl Saunders, and The Blue Meanies. Webber has also released three internationally sold solo CD's and has a fourth on the way! He has played on commercails for Levi's Jeans, Mattel Toys, Sizzler, AM PM Mini Market and more. When Garth isn't playing, he's busy in his fully professional 48-track recording studio producing CD's for Bay area bands.

Canada on March 28, 1965. The youngest of seven children, he grew up in a musical household. Starting with the violin at age 12, he quickly changed over to the electric guitar taking private lessons and playing with his older brothers. As a teenager, under the tutelage of his mentor, West Coast blues guitar master and technician Dave Vidal, he learned to play blues as well as guitar building and repair, electronics, and pickup winding. From age 15-18 while still at home he immersed himself in jazz playing with school mate (future Skywalk keyboardist) Miles Black in the Victoria clubs and jazz cafes. At age 17, Goodman was selected as best high school jazz guitarist in the province of British Columbia to play in "The Honor Jazz Ensemble“ led by Canadian Jazz legend Phil Nimmons. After graduating from high school, Dave moved to Vancouver to study jazz at Vancouver College under Bruce Clausen. Website: Dave Goodman
