    London-based 12-string guitarist James Blackshaw creates instrumental music that is intelligent, hypnotic and emotionally charged. He makes expert use of incredibly intricate finger picking patterns to make a partially-improvised music that is minimalistic, yet warm and accessible, making him one of the world's foremost modern solo acoustic guitarists. At only 27-years-old and self-taught, Blackshaw is often compared to legends like John Fahey and Leo Kottke. Opening for Blackshaw are Meg Baird, known for her work with psychedelic folk group Espers, and Micah Blue Smaldone, touring in support of his new release Red River.
