Tommy Emmanuel CGP - Living in the Light Tour
Cadogan Hall, SW1X 9DQ , [Venue Details]Guitar icon Tommy Emmanuel CGP is no stranger to iconic stages from Nashville’s Ryman Auditorium to Paris’ L’Olympia. The legendary entertainer has dazzled audiences across the world.
Tommy has a Grammy Award, multiple ARIA Awards and countless accolades, but nothing means more to Tommy than the three letters Chet Atkins designated at the end of Tommy’s name: CGP. The title of Certified Guitar Player was the highest honour Atkins could bestow on another player – a signifier that the recipient had not only mastered the instrument but taken it to new vistas and become a guiding light for the next generation of pickers.
Like Tommy, Chet had never gone to a university, and the CGP was his version of a PhD or a Doctorate of the guitar. He gave the honour to Tommy and only five other handpicked players.
As a songwriter and a performer, Tommy is a melting pot of influences across genres, from pop to bluegrass and jazz to rock ‘n’ roll. To him, music is rhythm and emotion, all other distinctions are meaningless. Anyone who has seen Tommy play will tell you, the vocalist is there, as is the drummer, the bass player and the rhythm and lead guitarists.
