Ronny North Bio
Southern California guitar hero Ronny North plays his own signature brand of instrumental rock guitar music. He has been getting airplay, selling his music and has been featured in publications all over the world. His music has been used in many film and TV projects including MTV’s “Real World” reality show. In early 2015 Ronny signed with Big Elephant Records. The first single “Seven Dollar Cool” is dropping in April 2015 with the full length CD Substantially Less Fun dropping in late spring. Did we mention he has also picked up a few awards along the way? He has a world wide fan base and has performed in Europe, Japan and in America. Ronny also regularly performs for NASCAR (the race fans really dig Ronny’s music for sure!!), the LA County Fair, the LA and OC Marathons, and the Long Beach Grand Prix. He is also a big believer in using his music to help various charities. Ronny has performed for the Special Olympics Summer Games for the last 14 consecutive years and will be performing at the Special Olympics World Games in July 2015. He also regularly plays events for the U.S. Vets and Troops and the Cancer Society just to name a few. Even Hollywood has taken notice: Ronny has been featured in several reality TV shows including “All Fired Up” and “The Ed Roman Guitar King” show. He has been a guest on countless music radio shows all over the world and is a popular judge at guitar competitions, most notably for both the Sam Ash and Guitar Center music store chains (including the Steve Vai Best in Shred competition). He also finds time to write the “Planet Shred” column for the Live 2 Play music website and to perform on other artist’s projects in which he has played guitar with several platinum selling recording artists over the years. With all this exposure, it’s no surprise the music equipment manufactures have taken notice. Ronny is a popular product clinician and is regularly featured in ad campaigns for his many sponsors. Ronny is tomorrow’s guitar hero today.
