Stunning Acoustic Guitar Piece

[Mykesbass]

I've always admired this style of playing but often felt it was clever but not particularly melodic. This young guy is a friend of mine and I think this piece is gorgeous:

Really lovely playing, very nice composition that reminds me of both Michael Hedges in terms of execution and phrasing, and Eric Johnson in terms of chords and structure, Forty Mile Town especially.

He's really got sensitivity and musicality. He chose a gorgeous Lowden too.

Tell him to sort his hair out

It's the beard that needs some radical surgery first!!

The tone of that Lowden is rather special!

I'm sorry but that that is simply amazing. Probably the best piece of music and playing I have heard this year. Top stuff.

WHOW !!! What a nice technique he has. Very relaxed in what he playing.
Thoroughly enjoyed.
Some pretty unusual things happening but so melodic.
Hope to hear more from him soon.

Cheers and thanks
