This from a “Martin Guitar” fan and player for many years. “I have used Martin Guitars for touring and recording for many years. I have to admit that the Voyage-Air has been an outstanding replacement and the carry-on design has made airline travel much less stressful“
Quote from A.J. Swearingen
AJ, Voyage-Air – on tour with Pop-Symphony Orchestras
A few years ago I started using Voyage-Air guitars on tour with Pop-Symphony Orchestras.
Our show is touring Nationally and Internationally with Pop’s conductor, Michael Krajewski.
It’s been a true honor to perform center stage with the Philly Pops, The Cleveland Orchestra, Atlanta, Houston, Toronto, Edmonton and many others. It’s also a true testament to the sound of my Voyage-Air considering the quality, price and sound of these orchestral instruments on stage.
The Voyage-Air guitar is also my main instrument for performing with my original music partner Jayne Kelli. Our songwriting duo,“Swearingen & Kelli”, is touring venues and opera houses across the US. Below includes our song “Realize”, performed with my Voyage-Air.
