Walt Kuchinski began playing guitar at age 11, taught initially by his Dad and then later by several great New York City guitarists. His jazz/rock group, The Dynamics played for many years in New York City, being one of the first to incorporate brass instrumentation into their sound. During this time, Walt taught guitar to well over 100 students.

Today, Guitar Travels performs regularly in the North Carolina region for a wide-range of venues. With roots in jazz, the music presented is diverse, serving to celebrate the wonderful diversity and multicultural nature of our communities.

From straight jazz and standards to Afro, Brazilian, Middle Eastern, Caribbean, Latin jazz and everything in between, Guitar Travels delivers an exciting program that is sure to please. His recently released CD by the same name (Guitar Travels - a Musical Journey) is featured on iTunes and has been well-received both in the U.S. and overseas.
