QuoteTHE ROLAND US "ALLIANCE"






Thank you for your interest in Roland products and our Roland Artists & Educators Alliance.

Roland recognizes that it is our professional users — both performing artists and music educators — that make our products come alive on-stage, in the recording studio and in the classroom. It is important to us to spread the message that the world's most respected music professionals use and value our products, and we pride ourselves on maintaining a select roster of musicians and educators to represent our core technologies and our diverse lineup of electronic musical instruments.

Roland Corporation U.S. seeks professional artists and educators that inspire the enjoyment of creativity in their music specialty, are enthusiastic to play our instruments, and strive to help us promote them to the general public and to our dealers. In return, we actively promote the work of our artists and educators through our websites, social networking endeavors and various multimedia platforms.

Ikutaro Kakehashi, Roland's founder, has led our company with this guiding principle: "Be the best, not the biggest." This philosophy is directly reflected in the Roland Artists & Educators Alliance; we strive for quality over quantity, as this allows us to offer the best and most personalized service and support for our music professionals when they are on the road, in the studio, or in the classroom.

To be considered for the Roland Artists & Educators Alliance, you must apply. We will then determine if you are a good fit for one of the many phases of our program.

QuoteCraig Jones

Craig "CJ" Jones moved to Los Angeles from Texas to attend the Guitar Institute of Technology in 1981. He quickly became part of the local L.A. music scene, touring and performing with artists as diverse as Leif Garrett, Edgar Winter, Susan Anton, Tori Amos and many others.

Besides being active as a studio guitarist, CJ became a staff member of Sunset Sound Recorders. At this world-famous facility, he learned engineering, MIDI sequencing, and hard disk recording techniques. This led him to form JonesTones Recording in Hollywood. During this period, CJ also landed a publishing deal, which resulted in much of his music being used for film and television soundtracks.

Besides composing for film and multimedia, CJ has an extensive background in sound FX design, ADR looping, and Foley recording/editing. CJ brings this experience to Roland Corporation U.S., where he conducts seminars and clinics all over the country. When he isn't traveling for Roland, you'll find him playing, writing, producing, and recording in Nashville, his home for the past four years.

Wondering if these have been cancelled.  Not seeing anything on the vendor or Roland websites for these any longer.
