Trevor Gordon Hall : Entelechy

© 2011 Candyrat Records / Trevor Gordon Hall

Trevor’s Candyrat Records debut album “Entelechy” explores new possibilities for the guitar through the use of a custom chromatic kalimba (African finger piano) that Trevor designed with help from various builders. The kalimba mounts on the surface of the guitar, allowing the steel tines and steel strings to resonate through the guitar body. The album focuses on solid melodic ideas, interspersed with the harmonies and rhythms of the kalimba, bringing a fresh sound to the acoustic guitar.

“Trevor is one of the few post-Michael Hedges guitarists who has managed to incorporate that vast repository of innovation while having an artistic voice strong enough to steadfastly avoid imitation…a guitarist we will need to pay attention to…” – Will Ackerman, Grammy winning founder of the influential new age label Windham Hill Records.

“…driving, tender and powerful all at once…” – David Kahne, Grammy winning producer (Paul McCartney, Paul Simon, Tony Bennett, etc.)

“Sharp, absorbing and beautiful meditations for guitar that will get your mind moving in new ways.” – Tom Moon, Music Critic (Rolling Stone, GQ, Blender, Vibe, Spin)
