Kirk Fletcher

Fletcher, Kirk
Guitar

Kirk Fletcher is booked at venues and festivals all over the world as a “blues player” (he toured for several years with Austin legends the Fabulous Thunderbirds, after all), but his dynamic and inspiring guitar playing cannot be pigeonholed into one genre. GIT students flock to Fletcher’s Open Counseling to learn how to play funk; to pick up, by osmosis, some of Fletcher’s soulful gospel inflections (Fletcher grew up doing a lot of church gigs); to learn how to groove “behind the beat” in a tasty R&B-approved fashion, and, most of all, to learn Fletcher’s explosive riffing and soloing approaches so that they, too, might know how to make every note count. Students can also come to Fletcher to learn the Hip Hop LPW song of the week.
