Join us for a special evening of masterfully-performed music by
internationally-renowned guitarist Thomas Leeb and his protege, Adam Merry.
BIO: Thomas Leeb picked up the guitar for the same reason as
every thirteen-year-old boy: he wanted to meet girls. He soon fell in
love with the instrument, played his first solo concert at the age of
fifteen and released his first acoustic guitar album at seventeen.
Leeb is a frequent performer at concerts and festivals in Asia,
the Americas and Europe and has been f
eatured in numerous guitar magazines all over the world. Every year, he
teaches workshops and master classes in universities and colleges and
his album "Desert Pirate" was voted one of the essential albums of the
last twenty years by Acoustic Guitar Magazine.
His peculiar guitar style owes as much to percussive techniques
as traditional fingerstyle guitar. What sets Thomas Leeb apart from some of his
contemporaries is his ability to make pyrotechnics serve the
music and three years studying West African traditional music give him a sense
of timing and groove that is unusual in a guitarist.
All this has earned him a loyal world-wide following and influential
fans such as Eric Roche who was his guitar teacher, "for about five
minutes and then I heard him play", Jon Gomm awarded him "ten out of ten Gomms"
and Guthrie Govan who thinks that "what Thomas does on an
acoustic guitar probably shouldn't be legal."
