Toby Gallegos has been involved with the Boulder Guitar Society for over 30 years, serving as its president for the last 15 years.

Toby started playing guitar at age 15 and discovered classical guitar while in college. After a long layoff due to the demands of young adulthood, he picked up the guitar again in middle age. Felicity Muench was Toby’s most influential guitar teacher. Toby enjoys a variety of music genres from classical to blues to steel-string acoustic fingerstyle to rock to New Age to folk to bluegrass to Americana, to name just a few. Toby’s overarching musical philosophy is that lyrics are just a break between guitar solos.

Toby is an almost semi-retired business coach and tax advisor. He and Liane, his wife of 51 years, live in Lafayette. Toby also serves on the board of directors of A Child’s Song.

Monday’s performance will feature Toby playing works by Eduardo Diaz while his many friends will preview pieces they are preparing for our All Stars Concert coming on April 4th. Thanks to Toby for everything and to Mark Cole for getting all this together for the concert.
