Australian guitar virtuoso Tommy Emmanuel, CGP brings his singular artistry to the Wheeler stage, celebrated worldwide for a style that fuses pop, jazz, classical, and roots influences into a sound entirely his own. His latest album, Living in the Light, reflects that expansive musicianship, recorded in just four days and shaped by the warmth and precision that have defined his remarkable career.
Emmanuel has performed everywhere from the Sydney Opera House to Carnegie Hall and has collaborated with icons including Chet Atkins, Les Paul, and Eric Clapton. As Atkins once said, “He’s one of the best guitar players I’ve ever seen.” Barry Gibb echoed the sentiment: “There’s the top guitarists in the world, and then there’s Tommy.”
