| Tommy Emmanuel at The Ridgefield Playhouse Thu, Sept. 20th Two-time Grammy nominee Tommy Emmanuel is on of Australia's most respected musicians. The legendary guitarist has a professional career that spans five decades and continues to intersect with some of the finest musicians throughout the world. Blazing, flawless, and spectacular are how you describe his performances – it's what has taken him from the wild Down Under to the world's most charismatic, soulful and technically brilliant fingerstyle guitar player. His unique "finger style" is akin to playing guitar the way a pianist plays piano, using all ten fingers. Rather than using a whole band for melody, rhythm, bass, and drum parts, Tommy plays all that – at once – and on one guitar. write your comments about the article :: © 2012 Jazz News :: home page |
