Born in 1969 in Baltimore, Maryland, Michael Raitzyk is one of Baltimore’s leading Jazz guitarist. He has performed with many great players over the years including Pepper Adams, Gary Thomas, Junior Cook and Bill Hardman. Raitzyk has recorded with vocalist Ann Louise White, saxophonist Kyle Coughlin, as well as recording his own debut CD Blues For Jake. With his new CD, Live at the Café Hon, Raitzyk lets you in on a great night of music. Michaels’ interest in Klezmer music has also influenced the way the trio approaches the music. Klezmer is Jewish Eastern Europe music created in the 1800’s. Raitzyk grew up listening to all kinds of music starting with the Allman Brothers Band. He got to see Pat Metheny with Gary Burton, which inspired him to try out playing jazz guitar. For the past four years, the Michael Raitzyk Trio has been performing for audiences in the Baltimore area, developing a large and dedicated following. The Trio covers Jazz standards, original compositions, and classic Funk covers.
