About GuitarStan (aka Long Legged Guitar Pickin’ Man): If you like Willie, Waylon, Merle, Cash, Kristofferson or some of the other big guys, you’ll love GuitarStan … Some folks have gone as far as calling him Willie Cash … Find out why! Ever since GuitarStan started to “borrow” their songs, well, most of them have never bothered to return to Humboldt County (for whatever that is worth?)! You’re in for a treat - just wait until you hear GuitarStan make love to his harp! GuitarStan comes to us from Canada and is now proud to be an American … an American by choice. So visit GuitarStan’s web site at GuitarStan.com and get a sampling of his country music delivery. Then, enjoy him in person at every opportunity you get. Get on his mailing list (stanguitarman@gmail.com) … be in the know. We look forward to entertaining you.
