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 featured 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.”
