Women of Guitar: Vicki Genfan and Ali Tod, live at the Reeves Theater! 4/18
Vicki Genfan
After winning the esteemed Guitar Player Magazine’s 2008 “Guitar Superstar” award, Vicki exploded onto the international stage with her groundbreaking percussive “slap-tap” acoustic technique. She has ignited audiences at major festivals including the International Montreal Jazz Festival and Germany’s Open Strings Guitar Festival, along with hundreds of performing arts centers across the U.S. and around the world. In addition to being a virtuosic instrumentalist, Vicki is an award winning singer/songwriter and electrifying performer, fusing folk, jazz, pop, soul, and world music into a bold, genre-defying sound all her own.
“If I could play like Vicki, I’d stay home and entertain myself.”

Ali Tod
Scottish guitarist and singer Ali Tod blends modern percussive fingerstyle guitar techniques with classical training and loop-pedal mastery, to create a live acoustic experience that gets hands clapping, hips shaking and feet stomping. Her dazzling guitar skills combined with her powerful, raw vocals have been enthralling audiences at festivals all around the world, and she is now ready to take the USA by storm. If Rodrigo y Gabriela and KT Tunstall combined to make a one-woman show, it would be Ali Tod.
'She's ten times the musician we are, we don't even know why she likes us!'
