Friday, Aug 29
What a treat to
have one of our favorite Texas guitar slingers close
the opening night of the 2008 W&M Festival.
The "Montiacs" should be out in force!
What this man does
with an acoustic guitar is beyond belief...He
taken
the acoustic guitar beyond anyone's
expectations. With his amazing fretwork, unique
combination finger and pick style playing through
trailblazing "chordal" thoroughfares often baffling
even the most accomplished players. While Monte
remains a huge enigma in the guitar universe, his
legendary reputation has spread like wildfire since
he appeared on Austin City Limits. In 2004
Monte was named on Guitar Player Magazine's
list of "Top 50 Greatest Guitarists Of All Time" and
in 2005 he was featured the Covers of "Frets"
and "Acoustic Guitar" magazines. Countless
articles have been written about Monte describing
him "The Evel Knivel of Guitar", "Six Strings
Attached To Dynamite", "The Answer To The Fermi
Paradox" and "The Acoustic Shred Master" just to
name a few. Monte's fretwork has become the
benchmark for acoustic guitar players. "An American
Original", there is no doubt Monte Montgomery
is destined to become An American Legend.
