Jimmy Dormire blew a lot of minds when he made his first appearance at Barking Legs as a member of Colonel Bruce Hampton’s band. His virtuosity on the guitar was matched by his fire and soulfulness. VirtU & OlsoL is his duo project with fellow Nashville guitarist Stan Lassiter. More minds shall be blown.

“In a city where guitar players swarm like bees, Stan Lassiter rises above the buzz. Lassiter built a local reputation in the ’70s and ’80s as a jazz-rock fusion kingpin, exercising a vocabulary based on thorny melodicism and edgy technique. After a long absence he’s returned to the scene as a six-string Zen master, blending big, warm tones with a more grounded, mathematical approach that balances prowess and heart. He’s teamed up for a summer tour with former Confederate Railroad lead guitarist Jimmy Dormire, who has shifted from Southern rock to the kind of jazz-fueled roots music spearheaded by the late Danny Gatton.” - Nashville Scene

Here’s a video taste (low-fi recording, high flying guitar playing)
