Keller Williams
Singer, songwriter, and guitarist Keller Williams is literally a one-man jam band. His fascinating live shows feature him solo on-stage with a Gibson Echoplex Digital Pro looping unit, and he creates his backing loops in the moment, building and improvising as he goes on his custom-made ten-string guitar, and thanks to his equally as quirky, upbeat, and semi-surreal songs (which he frequently weaves into extended, half-improvised medleys) and his warm, friendly tenor singing voice, Williams is an utterly unique performer whose musical eccentricities don't keep him from being immediately accessible....

I have to say, this guy is the king of improvisation. He uses samplers to layer himself over himself, combining instruments, sounds and styles to create any kind of jam you can imagine. Nothing throws this guy off - the Blue Angels interrupted the show I saw more than once and he managed to roll with it and put it in the song!
Funk, reggae, bluegrass, more funk - you name it. This guy is the string master.

One man. 12 instruments. Any kind of music he feels like.
