Today we celebrate the birthday of gypsy jazz guitarist Andreas Oberg.

Andreas has been teaching his signature style of guitar lessons online at ArtistWorks for over 3 years now. 

As a guitarist, Andreas is known for his uncanny speed and technicality, as well as his ability to seamlessly transition between jazz, bebop, gypsy, and pop. Specializing in jazz guitar improvisation, Andreas channels his influences when he plays, from jazz great George Benson to gypsy jazz pioneer Django Reinhardt.

Here's Andreas playing "Back Home in Indiana" by Ballard McDonald, recorded at the ArtistWorks studio back in 2010.
