Rich Osborn

Born: July 1, 1947

Richard Osborn is a raga style guitarist who studied and performed with legendary trailblazer Robbie Basho in the early 1970’s. He was sidelined for almost 30 years by a catastrophic injury to his left hand, taking up painting in the meantime, and quietly working and raising his family. Rich returned to public view in 2010 on the Tompkins Square survey CD “Beyond Berkeley Guitar”. His solo debut album “Giving Voice: Guitar Explorations” garnered high praise in 2012, and he now continues to open wider the possibilities for the acoustic steel string guitar with his new release “Freehand” in 2015
