Based in New York City, Q is a virtuoso modern guitarist. At home in many different styles of music such as jazz, R&B, Brazilian styles such as Samba, Forro, and Choro, Karnatic, and Afro Cuban music as well, Q is a true musical citizen of the world, deeply internalizing all of this music and making it his own resulting in a broad palette to draw from. These influences show particularly well in his compositions, on full display on his two albums of original music “All Around Dude”, and the recently released “There Are Stars in Brooklyn”.

Q maintains a busy schedule as a sideman and a band leader in NYC at clubs such as the 55 Bar, Cornelia St Cafe, Zinc Bar, and jazz festivals around the world.
