Mix the sophistication of jazz, the grit of Blues, and the grooves of funk and soul, and you have the recipe for contempo-jazz guitarist B.D. Lenz. BD and his trio come over from New Jersey and tour the UK most years, and have built up over 50 venues that welcome them back every year.
The New Jersey native has played guitar since his early teens, is a graduate of Musicians Institute in Los Angeles, and has studied with such masters as Mike Stern, Vic Juris, and Charlie Banacos along the way. Lenz has released 12 highly-acclaimed recordings as a leader featuring greats such as Randy Brecker, Will Lee, Joel Rosenblatt, & Mark Egan and his music has been featured in hundreds of TV shows globally including “Breaking Bad” (AMC), “Catfish” (MTV), and “Young Sheldon” (CBS) to name a few. BD is a Godin-endorsed guitarist and has performed thousands of shows internationally, keeping the audience on their feet whether playing jazz, fusion, or jam.
