DONATION: A 45-MINUTE BLUES GUITAR LESSON ALONG WITH A COPY OF HIS NEW RECORDING, PISTOL CITY HOLINESS

Dave Perkins' artistic journey crisscrosses the map of American music. His work as a guitarist includes playing bluegrass and swing with fiddle-great Vassar Clements, Texas renegade-country with Jerry Jeff Walker, singer-songwriter pop with Carole King, alternative rock with Chagall Guevara, folk with Guy Clark, blues and jazz with violinist Papa John Creach, reggae with Mystic Meditations, and industrial hard-core with Passafist. Then, there were the occasional odd jobs—such as accompanying Ray Charles on his "3/4 Time" video. If there's a style of American music that calls for guitar, chances are Dave Perkins has played it, and played it with passion and skill.
