Don Ross is an acclaimed and pioneering figure whose innovations have shaped an entire generation of acoustic guitarists and he’s the only two-time US national finger-style guitar champion. Don's music borrows from blues, jazz, folk and classical music creating a style that he describes as "heavy wood". His advanced technique and his sure feeling for rhythm combine with uncommon ideas to make his style instantly recognizable. He often uses percussive techniques and plays intricate down and upstroke patterns with his thumb. These techniques have found their way into the toolboxes of many competitive fingerstyle guitarists.
Jule Malischke is a guitarist, singer, songwriter, lecturer at the Carl Maria von Weber Music School in Dresden, as well as organizer and artistic director of the Giengen Guitar Festival in Germany. Jule effortlessly moves between different styles of concert guitar, complex fingerstyle arrangements, vocalisms, and her songs that she sings with great passion and poetry.
