Bill Frisell is an American guitarist and composer, born in Baltimore and raised in Denver, who began his professional career in the 1970s and is principally associated with jazz while drawing on Americana, folk and experimental music. His work blends improvisation with country, folk and electronic textures, and over several decades he has expanded into film scoring, orchestral arrangements and wide-ranging collaborations that place him within contemporary jazz and cross-genre American music scenes.
