Based in the San Francisco Bay Area, German-born Teja Gerken is no stranger to fans of contemporary steel-string fingerstyle guitar. Weaving together influences of folk, jazz, classical, and world music, his three albums, On My Way, Postcards, and Test of Time have received widespread acclaim. As a performer, Teja has shared the stage with many guitar visionaries, including John Renbourn, Alex de Grassi, Peter Finger, Andy McKee, and Henry Kaiser, as well as with his mentors, Duck Baker and Peppino D'Agostino. He is a familiar face at most Northern California acoustic music venues, and has toured throughout the USA and parts of Europe, including as a part of the International Guitar Night series. Teja is also active as part of a duo with fellow fingerstyle guitarist Doug Young. www.tejagerken.com.
