Mike Dawes treated us to a stirring rendition of his song "The Old Room" from his album "Era" Check out Mike's RUclips channel here: / mikedawesofficial
As are you misko! To be honest when I first heard your music I was really jealous because we are about the same age. You've helped push me harder in my pursuit of music though and have given me a lot more fresh, new, and different ideals that I wouldn't have reached on my own. You are a true genius and I can't wait to see how your style will continue to develop throughout your life. Never stop never stopping. As if I even have to tell you that. Thanks for your amazing music man. Do you have any tabs available? I would love to learn your cover of take me on. Last I checked I couldn't find tabs though.
One of the only players that carries on the tradition of beauty in this approach like Michael Hedges. So many people can demonstrate those techniques now, but few get the vibe. Mike does.
I logged in specifically to make this comment. Just want to show some love for Mike Dawes, such an incredible talent and composer... I learned earlier tonight that Mike is opening for Tommy Emmanuel in NY this April and I'll be DAMNED if I'm not there. Can't freaking wait!!!!
Seen Mike lots of times. A true once in a lifetime talent. Two years ago at Aldershot he played this for me as a request. At that time he had only played it once before publicly, but since then he has put it in his set list. He's probably the best player in the world. That c#m9 tuning is incredibly bizarre.
I love the expression of joy and excitement mixed with almost surprise on Mike's face while he plays ("How am I even making these sounds???!!!). I also suspect he has one more finger joint in each of his left hand fingers compared to us mere mortals... :-) Beautiful stuff Mike, thanks for the inspiration
Been practicing this song for two months or so. Sounding good but then I rewatch this vid and I'm reminded of how much "cleaning up" I have to do with my sound. Mike, ya done good on this one. My mom thinks it's a beautiful song, lol. Side note: I love how visibly pleased Mike is after he nails the scale at 3:25. PS cough cough ... Bella Soave tab ... please ... cough cough
Open D, if I'm not mistaken. But I could well be. I do know that Mike has tabs of his tunes on his website, though: mikedawes.co.uk/product-category/tab/ 🙂
@@Nitsua_Atayha Actually, the song is tuned : B,F#,C#,D,A,D. Had the pleasure of taking lessons from Mike in person last summer. Wonderful guitarist, wonderful man.
@@realmofreason2822 I was just assuming it was dadgad because Mike always Tunes his guitar to that as pretty much his standard I shouldn't be so ignorant next time many apologies
That’s fantastic. Mike is a genius and that reverb accompanies him so great!

People are rushing for Percussion. Guitar Music is disappearing. We want melodies not Heavy Percussion
totally reminds me of Michael Hedges - who I saw in a bar back in...omg what year? 1991?

Mike is one of my all time favourite guitar players and the hall of fame is one of my favourite reverbs. This is perfection

Wow Mike. You can't seem to stop amazing the finger-style world with your stringed mastery. I love it!

This Tuning is used by Michael Hedges also and in Mike's Reverie

Love the way that rings...

Okay, you are the one who made me familiar to Buckethead 🙏
@@bidyutdatta5042 I can live with that :D
Nice..!!
O MELHOR!
Shaggy from Scooby Doo is putting me to shame on his acoustic guitar chops
Too bad it took a Anderton's Musc video for me to learn about Mike Dawes. He's incredible.
This guy is my new fav acoustic artist. What guitar is that?
It's a custom made guitar for Mike Dawes built by a German Luthier Alexander Cuntz
!
Whats the tuning
Open D, if I'm not mistaken. But I could well be. I do know that Mike has tabs of his tunes on his website, though: mikedawes.co.uk/product-category/tab/ 🙂
It is open Bm9 tuning
BF#C#DAD
@@HarjinderKaur-ko5il Open c#9 it is used in live versions
a lot of Pino Forastiere influençes in it. Thanks
I would say Pierre Bensusan, the streching chords and the runs in the melody
when you forget to turn your tuner off but the camera is already rolling
Когда живешь музыкой...
reminds me of this tune by Lawrence Juber
ruclips.net/video/TQQQXPH4Tkc/видео.html
Standard tuning i guess !!
DADGAD
