Featuring three young guitar virtuosos, New West Guitar Group has been making their mark as the premier acoustic/electric guitar ensemble. Based in Los Angeles, their original music combines the different timbres of acoustic and electric guitars to create their signature sound. New West was established when the members were all students at the University of Southern California. As music majors, New West collaborated with USC to become the first group to receive the coveted Thornton Protégé Grant. It was during this time that the Los Angeles Sister Cities Committee honored the group as musical ambassadors of LA. This honor gave them the chance to perform at the 2005 World Exposition in Nagoya, Japan and the 2007 German-American Volksfest in Berlin, Germany. Featuring guitarist Jeff Stein, John Storie and Perry Smith New West has continued to perform in major venues throughout Canada, Japan, Europe, and the United States. In August 2009 New West performed at the Britt Festival in Southern Oregon as the opening act for Diana Krall. Most recently New West has produced their fourth album “Round Trip Ticket” released for Summit Records on October 11th, 2011. The new album combines the different timbres of acoustic and electric guitar to create the signature sound of New West. The album reached number 28 on the national jazz charts and was featured on NPR's Morning Edition.
