Workshops
This May, we are absolutely thrilled to welcome to The Crescent one of the world's finest acoustic guitarists Andy Mckee, presented by Old Flat Top.
Not only will Andy be joining us for a performance Friday evening, he will also lead this Guitar Clinic.
Come spend a couple of hours in the company of the master acoustic fingerstyle guitarist when you can pick up some hot tips, ask some questions on technique, composition, his instruments etc, and perhaps Andy will play a request or two!
Andy McKee entertains both the eye and the ear as he magically transforms the steel string guitar into a full orchestra via his use of altered tunings, tapping, partial capos, percussive hits and a signature two-handed technique.
His crossover success has helped him to achieve millions upon millions of YouTube viewers, underscoring his emergence as one of today’s most unique and influential artists. His song Drifting became one of the first YouTube viral videos with almost 60 million views. He has been featured as a cover story in both Acoustic Guitar Magazine in the U.S. and Acoustic Magazine in the UK. He also curates his own annual guitar retreat called Musicarium. Andy's tour dates have taken him through Europe, Asia, Australia and North America, including tours with legendary acts from Dream Theater to Tommy Emmanuel.
