Guitar virtuoso Robben Ford’s new album, Into the Sun, debuted at no.

2 on the blues charts and shines a bright light on his artful, contemporary songwriting and stunning playing.

The five-time Grammy nominee describes the 11 song set as “one of the top recordings I’ve ever done,” and Guitar Player Magazine claims it “explores the breadth of Ford’s sophisticated, visionary writing and playing, creating a new chapter in his brilliant musical history.” Ford has recorded more than 35 albums under his own name and with various bands.

There’s also his session and sideman work, which includes hundreds of concert appearances and albums by Miles Davis, George Harrison, Joni Mitchell, Bonnie Raitt, and Barbara Streisand, among many others.

An essential component of Ford’s career is his commitment to teaching and passing on what he's learned over the past 40 years to current and future musicians.

His instructional videos and clinics over this time have culminated in a collaboration with TrueFire and the birth of the Robben Ford Guitar Dojo.

Ford also continues to tour heavily and teach master classes in the U.S.

and worldwide.
