About Bobby Ingano
Master of the Hawaiian Steel Guitar

This picture of master Hawaiian steel guitar player Bobby Ingano was taken in February of 2009 in Manhattan Beach, Southern California, where Bobby gave a steel guitar workshop and later performed in a concert with a group fellow Grammy nominated musicians from Hawaii. Bobby can occasionally be seen performing with George Kuo, Martin Pahinui, and Aaron Mahi during their "Slack Key Sunday" evening performance at the Marriott Waikiki Hotel.
