Two-time Grammy nominee Tommy Emmanuel, one of Australia’s most respected musicians, is giving a concert in Malta on Wednesday as part of his It’s Never Too Late tour.

The legendary guitarist has a professional career that spans five decades and continues to intersect with some of the finest musicians across the world. A household name in his native Australia, Emmanuel has garnered hundreds of thousands of loyal fans worldwide.

His unique style, which he calls finger style, is akin to playing guitar the way a pianist plays piano, using all 10 fingers. Rather than using a whole band for melody, rhythm, bass and drum parts, he plays all that – and more – on one guitar.

American guitar legend Chet Atkins was one of the first to inspire Emmanuel to try this “fingerpicker” style as a child. Decades later, Atkins himself became one of Emmanuel’s biggest fans.

The concert is taking place at Pjazza Teatru Rjal, Valletta. It is rated 17+. Doors open at 7.30pm.
