For
over three decades, American fingerstyle wizard Richard Gilewitz has fascinated
listeners with 6 and 12-string finger gymnastics while spinning enchanting
yarns of a seasoned raconteur. His signature playing style delivers a technical
diversity of banjo style patterns and classical arpeggios with a rhythmic
percussive approach, exploring the history of guitar with sounds of folk to Americana, the blues to
the classical, ragtime to pop, and somewhere in between. In addition to his
concert performances, Richard offers his GillaCamp Guitar Workshops, Meet the
Artist Seminars, and Avenues for Success Education Outreach programs to inspire
players worldwide and provide opportunities for music lovers to hone their
craft and young players to learn fingerstyle techniques and tips of the trade.
