A little different guitar style......

This kid was on AGT in 2019, and while he didn't win the show, he did get signed to a contract with Sony. Mostly he does classical music and in the same style, kind of flamenco guitar.......but here he is doing Led Zepplins Kashmir



With all that head-bobbling, I bet his neck hurt. :laughing0301:

Wow! I couldn't even follow what he was doing his hands are so fast. He's a musical genius.
 
My dad had been a big fan of flamenco guitar and would play it often, Carlos Montoya comes to mind, but there were others as well

I picked up a CD of Alvin Lee's "Cricklewood Green" at Goodwill a couple weeks ago and am listening to a lot of the stuff he did that I never heard. He was really an under-rated guitar player, known only for his performance at Woodstock. Look at how he tunes and out-of-tune string to the organist's note, unlike guitar players today, who have to use an electronic tuner...

Speaking of underrated guitarists.......did you know (or do you remember) Homer & Jethro from Hee Haw? That under all that silliness, they could play some serious guitar as well. Not masterpieces by any means, but actual music. They even teamed up with Chet Atkins a few times, known as The Nashville String Band

 
I've seen flamenco style guitarists combine the percussive slaps and taps with finger runs, but that kid is another level.


He's put out a few videos explaining how he does it, but he makes it look completely effortless. 'My left hand is doing this, while my right hand is doing nothing, so I do a little of this, and then add a bit of that, then do something else'

Here is one.....

That is what musical geniuses do. They make the difficult/impossible look effortless like Oscar Peterson playing the piano.

Yeah, but this kid could play a whole song just on the neck bar with one hand. He's not just a 'one man band' he's a whole orchestra

Saw that a long time ago. He's brilliant, using the guitar also as percussion
