My next album 'Night In The City' will be released worldwide on December 1st 2023. Recorded at City Winery, Nashville, in 2021 it was a really special evening for us all. It's like I always say, If a live recording really represents the best of you -- that’s a real, and even rare, success.

RECENT COLLABORATIVE RELEASES

 

SEPTEMBER 30th:

Very proud to announce the release of COMMON GROUND - a record I did with Bill Evans, Darryl Jones and Keith Carlock.

This is a great band of musicians and I am personally proud of my contribution as a player and even more as a writer and producer.

You can find the record HERE. ENJOY!

Very happy to announce the release of a live recording from my group of the 90s,
The Blue Line,entitled Live at Yoshi's.

This was a very important band for me where my solo career really began. The Blue Line was a group of people who had something very special together, playing a style of blues that stretched the genre into a hybrid form that included jazz, rock and a ton of improvisation.

The band is caught at it’s peak, culled from a five night stint at Yoshi’s in Oakland, California in 1996. Any fan of my music will love this recording!

 

About Robben Ford

 

Watching Robben Ford take the stage is equal parts gratifying, awe-inspiring, and challenging—a perfect storm of creativity and emotion that results in some seriously good music. As soon as he plays his first note, you realize that you’re in the presence of a bonafide guitar master. With five Grammy nominations, a three-decade-long solo career, and a resume that includes Miles Davis, Joni Mitchell, and George Harrison, his accomplishments reflect the versatility and musicality of someone who has pursued their true calling. During a live performance, Robben is acutely tuned in, feeding off of the energy of the audience, and fully prepared to throw you a curve ball at any moment. In other words, it’s an experience not to be missed.

As of 2018, this long-time Californian has relocated to Nashville in search of new musical inspiration. Embraced by the local scene and fellow guitar master, Vince Gill, Ford is happy to find a new home in this eclectic musical melting pot. An avid songwriter with an inclination towards production, Ford excels at spending time in the studio and working on a variety of projects. This new era of creative output features him at the helm, highlighting both up-and-coming artists as well as some of the best instrumentalists that “Music City” has to offer.

An important and essential component of Robben’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. The wealth of his expertise and creativity is generously presented in these state-of-the-art productions, and will be, for years to come.
