Overview

    Guitarist/producer Ron Murray has been a professional in the music business for nearly 40 years. His latest CD release is Romanza, on the Whaling City Sound label, which has received excellent reviews and airplay across the U.S. and Canada.

    As a free-lance guitarist, he has appeared on stages from Boston, Mass. to Cordoba, Spain, as a soloist and with groups as large as the Boston Pops. He has accompanied vocalists of many styles, from Sergio Franchi and Johnny Mathis to Jon Hendricks and Rebecca Parris, including stints with Robert Goulet in Man Of La Mancha and Carol Channing in Hello, Dolly!. As a classical/flamenco soloist, he has played hundreds of concerts, as well as restaurant and nightclub dates, wedding ceremonies and corporate dinners. Currently a first-call contractor for the Mohegan Sun Hotel And Convention Center, Ron assembles groups from jazz trios to 10-piece dance and show bands, writing customized arrangements for corporate clientele. He has also arranged and recorded guitar parts for new Broadway shows, and works the Boston-New York axis with occasional runouts to Florida, Canada and the West Coast, playing both the nylon-string acoustic and conventional electric guitars, with MIDI connections to a guitar synthesizer when warranted.
