Profile
AA-S Best Bet - George Winston:
The capo de tutti capi of New Age-slotted piano players. There was a time when Winston's music was considered progressive - he first recorded for John Fahey's Takoma label and his sales practically built Windham Hill Records. Winston also has a long history with Austin - Waterloo Records was an early booster and he once sold out the Paramount Theatre. He also plays Friday and Saturday.

From the promoter:
George Winston is a consummate Contemporary Instrumental composer and performer who's achieved both commercial and critical success. His lilting, lyrical piano style conjures up seasonal images like impressionist, musical paintings. Winston draws on jazz, blues, pop and folk for his compositions, creating a dynamic and poignant sound.
