Here’s one to add to your playlist, Mike. And people thing the ‘uke’ is a ‘lame’ instrument. ;-) Enjoy.

This guy's good....I love to see such young talent....he reminds me a little of Pat Metheny if only in his touch and approach.

Thanks for posting.

The guy seems to have potential, but a lot of his playing just sounded like random "jamming." I'd love to hear him play a unified, coherent piece.

Or maybe I just don't like or understand this style of music. Still, I hear a little Phil Keaggy in his playing.

You’re a Metheny fan, too? :) One of my faves is ‘Letter From Home’...which I learned on piano (request from hubby). I always imagine a soldier out there reading a letter from a ‘loved one’.

Reminds me of Michael Hedges with the tapping and open chord tuning. He seems very young and does with such ease but watching his face is as interesting as watching him play — very expressive.

THis guy is obviously Indian, and though I only watche a minute of this, it’s clear he’s playing it on the guitar
EXACTLY the way he would play it on a sitar.
I would bet he plays sitar also.
He manages to make the guitar, the minute I heard
of it, sound VERY much like a sitar.

Incredible!!

The best finger style acoustic guitar player IMO is Tommy Emmanuel. This video is him playing Guitar Boogie

Metheny did some great stuff with Jaco Pastorius and Joni Mitchell also - look into Shadows and Light by Joni Mitchell if you don’t already own it. The video is pretty impressive also. I’m sure you can find some of that stuff on youtube as well.

Seek and you shall enjoy :)

It’s the scales that he’s using . Many sitarist can’t play guitar it a whole different thing. It’s easier for a guitarist to switch to sitar though .
