Teddy Sablon, singer/songwriter/guitar, at 22 years old is one of the most accomplished guitar players touring today. His unique voice and vocal style was caracterized by John Harper of the Virginian Pilot as a "vocal chameleon ...bringing to mind Don Fagen of Steely Dan, John Popper of Blues Traver and Bob Marley:

PJ Donahue, 27, bassist is inspired by the styles of Les Claypool and Victor Wooten.

Aaron Knight, 23, dummer with an unusual "open" style keeps a steady groove punctuated by tasty fills and aggresive jams.

Bio

Teddy Sablon, 22, singer/songwriter, and front man for the "groove rock" trio from Elizabeth City, NC, GUTA. The trio performs in excess of 50 original tunes as well as a few eclectic covers tightlly arranged and uniquely delivered.

After two years "in the garage" Guta hit the road focusing on well respected music venues als Tobacco Road, NYC (RIP), The LIons Den NYC, Grape St. Phila, The NorVa, Norfolk, The Pour House Raleigh, 12th & Porter Nashville and many more.

P.J. Donahue, bass, lays down a serious "bottom" and is the reason no one can sit still to the Guta groove.

Aaron Knight, with an unusual "open" playing style, keeps the steady groove meter punctuated by some very tasty fills.

Recently nominated as one of the six best bands in the southeast by Billboard Magazine.

Nominated Best Album, Best Rock Song and Best Reggae Song by Just Planin Folk Music Organizaion out of 10,000 CDs submitted.

Guta, a breath of fresh air in a "cookie cutter" musical age.
