About the event

Richard Smith Fingerstyle Acoustic Guitar Workshop
Enhance your playing with award-winning fingerstyle icon Richard Smith. At the age of 11, British-born Richard first shared the stage
with renowned picking hero Chet Atkins, going on to be inspired by celebrated guitarists including Merle Travis, Jerry Reed, Django Reinhardt, and Joe Pass. Over the decades, Richard has become known for his signature style, a unique blend of country, jazz, classical, and ragtime influences, and his demonstrable skill recording or performing with many icons, including Tommy Emmanuel, Les Paul, Joscho Stephan, Brent Mason, and Martin Taylor. Learn the fingerpicking style, percussive techniques, and emotive expression that empower this guitar master to perform on a six-string saga around the world.

Discover techniques to master:
• Picking patterns and Travis picking
• Right-hand thumb/finger independence
• Playing solo melodies over harmony and rhythm
• Ear development, transcription, and arranging
• Clockwork timing
