About the Artist
Jay EuDaly (b.1955) has been playing the guitar for most of his life. At a very young age he recieved a ukelele which his mother tuned in an open chord and taught him to play by using a kitchen knife handle as a slide. He obtained his first guitar at age 11 and never looked back. By 1970 he was playing in bands at school functions, coffee houses and nightclubs in and around the Kansas City area.

In 1977 Jay enrolled at the University of Missouri at Kansas City. His degree program was Guitar Performance. He studied classical guitar for three years with well-known guitarist and Christopher Parkening protege, Douglas Niedt. At the same time he was working in cover bands playing 6 nights a week to support a new wife and children that began arriving in 1980. In 1979 Jay began studying with John Elliott, a legend among Kansas City jazz musicians. He studied with John for seven years, up to Feb. of '86.

All during this period Jay was playing full-time. Six nights a week, fifty weeks a year. So many gigs and bands he can't remember them all. Lots of road work, mostly in the mid-west.

In 1986, tired of the road work and needing to be at home with his growing family, Jay started concentrating on building up a student load that would support them and keep him off the road. In a very short time he was teaching 80+ students a week and still performing locally 2 or 3 times a week. He also began accumulating recording equipment and has been self releasing tapes and cds of his own music since 1991.

Jay has opened for or backed up several national and international acts including Spirit, The Impressions and R Kelly. He has worked occasionally with Smooth Jazz artist Max Groove.

In the late '80's and early "90's, he was in 2 different versions of Mahogany led by famed jazz vocalist Kevin Mahogany who is now a world-renowned Warner Bros. recording artist.

In 1999 he released his method book for guitar, Vertical Truth - Chordal Mechanisms for the Guitar.

Today he continues to perform, teach, write and record as a respected member of the Kansas City musical community. He performs every Saturday afternoon with Mama Ray and the Rich VanSant band hosting the longest running Kansas City jam session in existence. He is featured on many cuts of that groups 1997 release "Jam!" recorded live at Harlings' Upstairs. Most weekend nights are spent with Valentine and the Ticklers as well as various "hired gun" situations. He continues to write and record out of his home studio doing soundtrack and instrumental work for clients nation-wide. He is also very much in demand as a teacher and has several other teachers using his method books.

You can reach him at his teaching studio at (913) 541-1863 or e-mail him from his site, masterguitar.com.

Jay EuDaly lives in Kansas City, Mo. with his wife Andrea and their 5 children and he gets to play the guitar all day - every day.
