Glenn Roth September 26, 2008

Glenn Roths constant companion throughout his life has been his guitar, even at the tender age of seven. Enthralled with the guitar and the amazing sounds which he was able to create with this instrument, he chose to wrap his life around music. Glenn is currently a guitar instructor by vocation, with a roster of private students. In addition, he teaches young guitar hopefuls out of the Branford, CT music store, A Sound Choice. For the past five years, Roth has been performing regularly at various venues throughout Connecticut and New York. He began performing as one half of an acoustic duo called Fountain Project, which after two years evolved into a full band by the same name, in which he plays lead electric guitar. Fountain Project has performed at musically respected venues such Toads Place in New Haven and CBGBs in NYC. Having already developed a following and a reputation as a uniquely talented guitarist through his prior performances, Glenns solo career has begun full force with regular performances around the New Haven, Connecticut area. Glenn has the consistent ability to grab and hold his listeners attention with his energetic, original fingerstyle music, which consists of a wide range of styles and influences, often improvisational. Glenn is currently performing as a solo guitarist while continuing to study jazz and fingerstyle guitar. He is heavily influenced by a wide range of artists from Eddie Van Halen and Trey Ananastasio, to Tool and 311. In the fingerstyle genre, Glenn is influenced by Tommy Emmanuel, Preston Reid and Michael Hedges.
