2024 Release: Arlen Roth Playing Out the String

Arlen Roth's 20th solo album and his fifth all-acoustic offering, he's bringing rootsy acoustic music to new heights on Playing Out the String. The new album was recorded, mixed and mastered by Alex Salzman, who also contributes keyboards to the mix. Arlen Roth is a true guitar legend; part of the list of who he's recorded and toured with contains folks like Simon & Garfunkel (together and individually), John Prine, Phoebe Snow, Bob Dylan, Bee Gees, Don McLean, Levon Helm, Ry Cooder, Duane Eddy, Danny Gatton, Janis Ian, Dusty Springfield, John Sebastian, Johnny Winter and countless more. He also appeared with Ramblin' Jack Elliot and Patti Smith in the Martin Scorcese Rolling Thunder film, created the guitar parts and was consultant and teacher to Ralph Macchio for the legendary blues film, Crossroads.

2018 Release: Arlen Roth TeleMasters

I teamed up with some of the greatest Tele players of all-time, such as BRAD PAISLEY, VINCE GILL, ALBERT LEE, STEVE CROPPER, BILL KIRCHEN, BRENT MASON. REDD VOLKAERT, MARTY STUART, STEVE WARINER, WILL RAY, JERRY DONAHUE, JOHNNY HILAND and TOMMY EMMANUEL (and other surprise guests!) This is a follow-up to my "Slide Guitar Summit" album from 2015, which also featured some of the world's greatest slide guitar players. Most of the tracks were recorded and filmed in Nashville, TN, and this album is produced by Grammy winner TOM HAMBRIDGE, who also produced the Slide Summit and played terrific drums on it! He is also the producer of BUDDY GUY and many others!

Roth is known as the “Master of the Telecaster,” but he is also a renowned acoustic guitarist. And he is an expert slide guitarist. His wealth of talent and diversity in multiple musical genres enabled him to maintain a busy career as a performer and recording artist since the 1970s.
