Peerless

Relix wrote about Shawn Persinger's Peerless, "It's a marvelous collection of intricate and mind-bending acoutic guitar instrumentals and songs...borders and on brilliant," while The Village Voice enthused, "Imagine Mahavishnu John hanging up his electric ax and hitting the singer-songwriter circuit...a heck of a fine guitarist." Persinger follows up 2000's "Resaonable Horse" with this example of open-tuned virtuosity, perfect for a dark listening environment where one can be totally enveloped by the music. Praise for his playing ability and composition style by publications as far reaching as Rolling Stone, Guitar World, The Washington Post and The Village Voice, along with continuous airplay, an endorsement from Elixir Guitar Strings and support from Taylor Guitars' "Discover the Indies" program provides evidence Persinger is continuing to develop a wide and diverse following throughout the world.
