Johannes Linstead returns, in support of Michael Garron Hospital
From having over 500 million streams, to being named Canada’s “Guitarist of the Year,” to winning eight “Best Album” awards, to seven top-ten US Billboard charting albums, and winning the “People’s Choice” award in the UK, Johannes Linstead has become recognized internationally as one of the best-selling guitarists in the Instrumental, Latin Jazz and World Music genres.
Johannes performs a style he calls "guitarra latina" or Latin guitar, which fuses Latin jazz influences with the exotic sounds of Spain and the colorful rhythms of Cuba. Accompanied by spicy Latin percussion, grooving bass, and soulful accordion, Johannes sets the stage on fire with his Spanish guitar magic. Proceeds support Michael Garron Hospital Foundation.
