Last time Claude was with us, the first gig sold out so fast we put another one on to satisfy demand. This man is amazing and we could not believe that such sounds could come from one guitar, without loopers or other gizmos. We are delighted to have him back across the water.

This French-born guitarist grew up in Switzerland where he was classically trained, before further exploring the guitar without the limitations of written music and delving headlong into folk, blues, jazz and rock music.

He has become a world-renowned player, highly acclaimed for his finger-picking style. He plucks, picks and strums at such speed that his fingers seem just a blur. Occasionally adding lyrics in his soft, slightly gruff voice, Claude is a master of his craft and his performance keeps audiences spellbound.

Fresh off a round of Europe and days before another American tour we recommend you catch him now.
