Galloping Guitars: Russell Malone 

Russell Malone was largely self-taught and played professionally when in high school. His first big gig was with B3 master Jimmy Smith. He spent four years with Harry Connick Jr’s big band and came to prominence during his four years with singer-pianist Diana Krall. Since then he has been a strong, sought-after presence on the jazz scene.
