About Adam Rafferty
A guitar player born and raised in New York City, Adam currently spends most of his time on the road playing concerts and doing workshops. Playing music for people is his #1 passion. Teaching music and life is his #2 passion. As a 6 year old kid he started with Woody Mann as his teacher and learned a little fingerpicking blues tabs from Reverend Gary Davis, Blind Blake, and others. Like many guitar players, he went through the phases of rock, and classical and then got deep into jazz. He played jazz guitar for many years in New York City and was able to play with some jazz greats along the way like Mike Longo (pianist for Dizzy Gillespie and my mentor), Alvin Queen (Drums for Oscar Peterson & Horace Silver), Dr. Lonnie Smith (B3 organ with George Benson), Buster Williams, Bob Cranshaw, Tal Farlow….among many others. In 2006 he was deeply moved by the fingerstyle guitar music of the one and only Tommy Emmanuel. Since then he has toured as a solo act worldwide (Bangkok, USA, Germany, Italy, Austria, Scotland, Bermuda, Singapore, Malaysia, Czech Republic), released several fingerstyle instruction DVDS (teaching Stevie Wonder, Jackson Five, and Jazz Guitar), and amassed over 10 million YouTube views.
