Welcome to a new edition of the Neon Jazz interview series with Jazz Guitarist, Composer, Arranger, Vocalist & Songwriter Joel Harrison. We dive into his brand-new 2025 release Guitar Talk Vol. 2 – Jazz Duos and his fascinating journey in the jazz world.

This latest project is a bold collection of improvisations built around Harrison’s far-ranging compositions. A Washington D.C. native and 2010 Guggenheim Fellow, Harrison has released 20 CDs on seven labels since 1994. With formative years spent in Boston and the Bay Area, he is now based in Brooklyn, NY—continuing to craft innovative music and stories that unfold with every project.
