Two-time Grammy-nominated guitarist Tommy Emmanuel’s career speaks to his musical diversity, stretching from authentic country-blues to face-melting rock shredding by way of tender and devastating pure song playing. One of Australia’s most respected musicians, the legendary guitarist’s unique style is akin to the way a pianist plays piano, using all 10 fingers to play the parts of an entire band – melody, rhythm, bass, drums and more – on one guitar. Widely acknowledged as the international master of the solo acoustic guitar, Emmanuel will be joined by special guests to revisit his recent album, Accomplice One, featuring collaborations with some of today’s finest singers, songwriters and guitarists.
“Delivers the goods with a beam on his face and a deftness and agility of touch that leaves you wide-eyed.”The Australian Times
