There aren't many musicians  using their talents quite like Buzzy Martin. After years of working in juvenile halls, teaching music and spreading his message of "Education not Incarceration," word spread that the classes were changing kids' lives and Buzzy was asked to teach a twelve-week music program at San Quentin State Prison. Three years and five months later, Buzzy finished his final class at the "Q.” As the author of Don't Shoot I'm The Guitar Man, Marting gives us an depth, truthful and inside scoop of what it was like teaching music inside one of America's top security prisons. Look for the motion picture Don't Shoot I'm The Guitar Man in late 2012
