Royce Campbell
Born:
Royce Campbell, jazz guitarist, was a member of the Henry Mancini orchestra for twenty years and whose blues-influenced, jazz-guitar playing has earned him accolades as a solo performer and sought-after session musician. Born in North Vernon, Indiana with a stepfather who was career military, Campbell grew up in cities throughout the U.S. and the world. He started playing the guitar at 9 and the first jazz guitarist he was interested in was Wes Montgomery. By the time he finished high school in Spain in the early 1970s, he had decided to pursue a career in music. His uncle, pianist Carroll DeCamp, who had done arrangements for Stan Kenton and Les Elgart, invited him to Indianapolis to live and study. His uncle provided his education in music theory and composition and at 21, he toured with rhythm and blues (R&B) singer Marvin Gaye before spending twenty years as a member of the Henry Mancini orchestra until Mancini's death in 1994.

Royce Campbell: Playing Pretty
As a jazz guitarist, it's not easy to play pretty. You have to worship harmony, you have to love the sound of the instrument, and you have to want to seduce audiences.
