From his virtuoso rock solos, to laying a funk groove, to demonstrating his classical prowess by performing Bach and Mozart compositions, Zaza's extreme versatility has been showcased worldwide in concerts, clinics, festivals, as well as on his own solo instrumental albums.

Zaza has shared the bill with Joe Satriani, Steve Vai, Dweezil Zappa, Steve & Mike Porcaro (Toto), Yngwie Malmsteen, Vinnie Moore, and Andy Summers. He has performed on albums by Dweezil Zappa, Eric Carmen, Michael Stanley and also supplied guitar tracks for a Stewart Copeland-produced movie soundtrack. He has won numerous readers’ poll awards for “Best Guitarist” in worldwide publications, including the coveted “Best Guitarist Award” at The Free Times Music Awards two consecutive years.

“Live From Music City” will begin Tuesday’s broadcast with part three of the four-week series, "Press & Publicity: The two most often overlooked pieces of the puzzle,” with special guest Bob Bender of Bob Bender Productions (www.bobbenderproductions.com). Bob Bender has toured for over 17 years both domestically and internationally, working with acts like Tim McGraw, LeAnn Rimes, Ringo Starr & his All Starr Band, Edgar Winter, Rick Derringer, New Kids On The Block, Jo Dee Messina, Billy Preston, Gene Pitney, Mark Lindsay, A Flock of Seagulls, Lisa Lisa & The Cult Jam, Dwight Twilley, Greg Kihn, and the Smokin' Armadillos.

“Live From Music City” reaches and appeals to singers/musicians who have achieved at least mid-level entry points in their careers. We try to help the artists define the steps they need to take to advance their careers.

We'll discuss a variety of topics through commentary and with guests to showcase their roles within the performing and recording industry. We'll also focus on the music business from the perspective of service to the artist, as well as how the artist can achieve the next levels of success.

While we concentrate on the roles of the 'insiders,' we will also include recording artists themselves to better understand and explore the relationship between the two."
