My name is Brian Elzey. I am 34 years old, and have been playing guitar for over 17 years. I currently play guitar in the variety band Jacknife, based out of Cedar Rapids,IA. I love SRV-style blues and traditional jazz as well. I have a lovely wife and two young sons (surely the next guitar gods of the future!). I also teach lesson at West Music in Cedar Falls, Ia.
