Critically Acclaimed Guitarist Shambhu To Debut At Croce's Park West On May 18, 2015

New York, NY (Top40 Charts) Newly landed San Diego resident and contemporary instrumental guitarist Shambhu will make his official San Diego debut at Croce's Park West (2760 Fifth Avenue, San Diego, CA 92103) on May 18th starting at 6 pm. There's a $5 cover charge. For information call Croce's at 619-233-4355.

Shambhu will be performing his own original songs and favorites from legendary artists, including Bill Evans, Pat Metheny, John McLaughlin, Joni Mitchell, Sting, the Beatles and others.

Shambhu expresses himself through a blend of folk, Indian and jazz styles. He writes and arranges music that emerges in quiet introspection. His technical mastery of the guitar and touch evoke delicate yet intricate expressions of nuance and subtlety. He has performed with Carlos Santana, Narada Michael Walden, and he played on Whitney Houston's multi-platinum album, 'Whitney.' His music has been called 'magical,' a 'journey', and 'opening a space within'.

'Dreaming of Now,' the Zone Music Reporter's #2 charting album by composer/acoustic guitarist Shambhu, was voted the 2013 Best Contemporary Instrumental Album at the 10th Annual Zone Music Reporter (ZMR) Music Awards Show in New Orleans on May 17th, 2014.

Shambhu exploded into the contemporary instrumental music world in October 2010 with his acclaimed #1 debut CD, 'Sacred Love,' which earned nominations for Best New Artist, Best Album of the Year, Best World Music CD, and Best Acoustic Instrumental.

Reviewer Kathy Parsons wrote, "'Dreaming of Now' firmly establishes Shambhu as a leading guitarist and composer of the contemporary instrumental movement," and Michael Diamond of Music and Media Focus called 'Dreaming of Now,' "a musical masterwork that sets a new standard for music in this genre."
