Who is Wendell Ferguson? And why should I go see him in concert?
He plays impressive finger-style guitar! He tells fabulous stories and jokes. He emcee’s and hosts major events. He writes hilarious songs. Unfortunately he also sings them. Well, you can’t have everything. This guy has made a living being a much in demand guitar player, a songwriter, a comedian, but as anyone who’s ever seen him will agree, this guy is first and foremost an entertainer (and he can juggle a little).
Wendell is mostly a guitarist, and ten CCMA awards and a CFMA Best Instrumental Album of the Year awards will attest to that. He’s been twice nominated for a JUNO award and in 2014 was the ‘Artist’ inductee into the Canadian Country Music Hall of Fame. Not bad for a guy who’s never worked a day in his life.
Ferguson says,“It’s true, I’ve never worked a day in my life. But this sure isn’t work, it’s pure fun!”
Look at some of the quotes: “He keeps the audience’s minds very busy, trying to figure out how his mind works.” “The darkness of his humor is lit by the brilliance of his guitar.” “He doesn’t leave a dry seat in the house.” "The man writes sharp, witty and head-spinningly brilliant tunes. He's a cross between Roger Miller and Ray Flack. He has more in common with Mark Twain than Shania.”
