This guy changed my life. I was 18 years old and ready to go on college to become a math teacher. To this day i played a lot of rock music and i never was interested in acoustic guitar. Then i found Tommy and learned Lewis & Clark (after two month of practice) and was hocked. I'm 30 now and in the past years i just played fingerstyle and now im teaching in my local musicschool without any diploma. I played on a lot of different stages. My parents told me to study and work a normal job. But now i make a living from it. I don't chase money but i chase the right things to do that makes me happy! You can do it too, if you work hard on your craft.. what ever it is! Thanks Tommy ❤

Saw him live in Tokyo in 2019. Hands down one of the best musicians and entertainers I have ever seen. The show was non stop for 2 hours….just him and a guitar. The show was unbelievable. He helped me to understand what was missing from my own musicianship. I was missing expressing my feelings and emotions through my instrument. He was just speaking honestly through the guitar. Amazing guy.

Molti lo considerano un virtuoso della chitarra, ma Tommy Emmanuel è molto di più. È un narratore, un poeta, un visionario della musica. Ogni volta che si esibisce, riesce a trasportare il pubblico in un'altra dimensione, in cui i confini tra musicista e ascoltatore si dissolvono.Un gigante assoluto della guitar acoustic.

It is great to know that Tommy experiences the same joy while playing that we do when listening to his genius of expression. I have always known he never learnt to read music nor did he bother to play scales. Whenever he plays any song, he is playing scales. His style of playing is the best. It is a flowing part of his being. He is such a great bloke to share with us all, his joy of music.
