Gareth Pearson: Windy & Warm

- Gareth Pearson is called “The Welsh Tornado” by guitar legend Tommy Emmanuel, appropriately since he quickly blew onto the guitar map. Inspired by classic country guitarists Chet Atkins, Merle Travis, Jerry Reed, and Tommy, he creates fingerstyle pyrotechnics and brilliant leads for his innovative arrangements to make an entertaining show.
Evidence of an innate talent, it was within a year of taking up the guitar that Gareth was opening for Tommy on his 2005 UK tour. In Cardiff, in Pearson’s native Wales, Tommy invited Gareth to play at the Chet Atkins Appreciation Society convention in Nashville. He makes his home there now. Gareth’s debut album “Urban Echoes Vol 1” was selected by Acoustic Guitar editors and frequent contributors as one of the “Essential Acoustic Albums of 2010”.
Wonderful rendition and tribute to the great Tommy Emmanuel (and Chet Atkins, of course)!
Lovely performance !
TE is also a guitar hero of mine, although I think Richard Smith does the best version of this.
Always thrilled to witness Gareth's performances!
How amazing that he was inspired by Tommy E.--who was inspired when he heard it by Chet way back in the early 60's.
Very nice
Elvis is dead
