Profile:
Johannes Linstead is an award-winning Canadian guitarist and instrumentalist that fuses virtuoso level Spanish-style guitar with Afro-Cuban, Middle Eastern, and Latin American percussion and instrumentation. His recordings of world music have all charted on Billboard Magazine. In 2007, Johannes was named "Guitarist of the Year" in the prestigious Canadian Smooth Jazz Awards, and his CD, Cafe Tropical, earned a JUNO nomination for "Best Instrumental Album".

Linstead currently lives in Oakville, Ontario just West of Toronto. Aside from his guitar virtuosity, he is a very accomplished pianist, and is known to grab the odd maraca and add in rhythm fills. He released a beautiful holiday collection in the fall of 2006.
