“I’m so excited that my favorite guitarist, Tommy Emmanuel, will be joining me for this concert, and that you’ll get to have the ‘Tommy experience.’ His music extends deep into the soul, and he has inspired musicians around the world with his unique energy.” …Muriel Anderson
Many people consider Tommy Emmanuel this planet’s greatest guitarist. His playing is simply miraculous, not only because it would take three or more musicians to do what Tommy does solo, but also the exciting energy and a depth of spirit you can positively feel. This Grammy-nominated musician comes to the guitar like a vocalist, singing melodies through the strings, delivering every nuance and turn of phrase. His music, coming from a genuine and joyful source, is an experience not to miss.“Just one hell of a great player.” Les Paul
