JAZZ@theEDGE Festival! Featuring Isaiah Sharkey
Isaiah Sharkey has built an enviable reputation as a guitarist's guitarist. His voluminous credits cover all genres, and when he's not in the studio you'll find him onstage, whether that means touring the world as a member of John Mayer's band or jamming in a hometown Chicago club with Snarky Puppy.
The accolades from his colleagues are endless; his fanbase is widespread and dedicated. Still, you won't find him on national magazine covers or "best of" lists - at least not yet - and he's fine with that.
"I never chased being a celebrity guitarist, because I'm too busy liking what I do," he says.
"It's not about being in the limelight. If it comes, it comes, but I want to be whatever I need to be to contribute to music. That's more important. If someone says, 'Hey, man, there's this guy around the corner that plays guitar, and I learned from him and he helped me along the way,' I'm cool with that. If someone is impressed with my playing, that's great, but my job is to affect people and love what I do."
