[March 02, 2017]  LINCOLN - Two of the world’s finest jazz guitarists – FRANK VIGNOLA and VINNY RANIOLO – will take the stage at the Hargrove Chapel Auditorium at Lincoln Christian University at 7 p.m. on Friday, March 3. Their arrival here in Lincoln is sponsored by the Lincoln Land Concert Association as part of their current series of concerts.

Lead guitarist, Frank Vignola met Vinny Raniolo (a marvelous rhythm guitarist) at a NYC jam session in 2006, and they formed their duo in 2010. Since that time they have played over 1,000 shows together!

Individually they have played with Ringo Starr, Madonna, Wynton Marsalis, Queen Latifah, the Boston Pops and the New York Pops. They are featured on National Public Radio regularly and on the PBS Special – “Four Generations of Guitar.”

Their program will feature a wide variety of compositions including works from Bach and Mozart to Ellington and Waller. They will even blend in Gershwin and Carmichael and and even Sting, Lennon-McCartney and possibly some originals.

Frank and Vinny want to have people leave their shows feeling better than when they arrived. They try to make people laugh with their comedy routines and blend it with their fabulous musical abilities to create an exciting show.
