Where to start! This video took an army to raise!
I first heard this arrangment of Africa for 4 guitars at the Shearer Summer Institute in Zion National Park. I was blown away! It’s truly an incredible arrangement. Capturing Toto’s famous song with only 4 guitars is no easy feat.
This version was arranged by my good friend and incredible musician and educator, Dr. Alan Hirsh. He is continually writing and arranging for guitar, and if you’re looking for guitar ensemble music of any nature, I encourage you to check out his website and contact him: www.guitarensemblemusic.com/.
Also, big thanks to Jake Cypher for mastering the audio! Jake and I played together for years in guitar ensemble. Not only is he a gifted guitarist but he’s also an AMAZING audio engineer. He brought this project to the next level. Check out his website to see his latest projects: jcyphermedia.com/projects/.
Ron Hankison helped shoot and edit the video. The extra editing he did to bring down the ceiling, erase the plugs…(something like that) is so beyond me and extremely impressive. He’s a fabulous friend and amazing artist.
Tony Carrola…my bro and right hand man! Helped plan the shots and pull the whole thing off. Not to mention the hours he spent coloring and editing. (He says I made his job harder by starting the process…LIKE WHAT.) Couldn’t do it without your artistic sense and constant insults. You’re a spawn of the devil, bro.
Big thanks to Tom Haas for getting us the recital hall to shoot in! And big thanks to the police officer who actually busted us in when my card stopped working. (There’s some doubt on the fact if it ever worked, though.)
Lastly, thanks to Kremona guitars for outfitting me with fantastic instruments! All of the guitars are different. The one on the far right is a seven string guitar! WHAAAAA…yup, it added to that extra bass line. Kids, it’s amazing what a low B can do for the mojo of the shoot. It’s important to note that I don’t name my guitars…Tony does. He’s to blame completely for the outrageous and obnoxious names. Also, colored shoelaces are a thing…I’m obsessed.
And that’s it!! Hope you guys dig. Stay rogue-ish. Break rules.
See you on the next one!

Didn't anyone notice these 4 dudes are the same man!
Fooled by the different clothes, we would be useless witnesses haha
This is the kind of performance you get when a song goes from being classic to iconic
Absolutely stellar!
Great cover of an epic song. Love how it looks seamless, four versions of the same guy on the same stage at the same time. Bravo 👌✌
Guitars were singing every word clear.. amazing
The best ever...nothing better than acoustic guitar sounds for this song..congratulations guys, good job
I believe there are more camera men than guitarists in this. Great job
Outstanding, what a performance of this Toto's classic. Thanks.
Coisa linda!!!
Mamma África fica feliz em ser representada assim, tão belamente!

Amazing, in one job to mix four guitars plus the way to mix the four images. It takes time to see that is the same guy. The production of the video was brilliant. There are several senses that enjoy this performance. ☝🏼
