Ben Woolman, Dan Schwartz, and Matt Schroeder, in a sense, have grown up together having all graduated with Bachelor of Fine Arts Performance degrees in American Finger-Style Guitar from the short lived cooperative program between The Wisconsin Conservatory of Music and the University of Wisconsin - Milwaukee.

Since graduation, each player has earned numerous accolades and established themselves as credible solo performers, composers and teachers.

As a group they released a compilation CD, American Finger-Style Guitar Circa 1999, and collectively have released over 16 projects.

The Midwest Guitar Summit presents a uniquely choreographed performance consisting of solo, duo and trio pieces performed on a variety of guitars including: Acoustic steel string, Hawaiian lap steel, baritone, electric and harp guitar. The music is woven together to produce a very tight, smooth flowing show full of quality music, humorous stories, and warm camaraderie.
