You’ll already be familiar with JON GOMM’s 1.5m YouTube viewed cover of Ain’t Nobody, so please also check out his latest offering Dance Of The Last Rhino – mesmerising stuff … Over to Jon, “If you’re into it, pleeeeeease share it with your friends. Without online sharing, I’d still be playing pretend gigs in my bedroom to my stuffed toys.” And you can download it HERE for a measly penny!

So … Jon Gomm. A Leeds-based acoustic singer-songwriter with a revolutionary virtuoso guitar style, using just one acoustic guitar to create drum sounds, bass lines and twisting melodies all at the same time. And once you get over the jaw dropping manoeuvres and technique, you’ll be rewarded with some spectacularly beautiful songs.

“We have seen the future of acoustic guitar playing, and it is called Jon Gomm” – Blues Matters

Jon’s live shows combine deeply personal performances and a natural wit, with a once-seen-never-forgotten two-handed guitar style, both physical and complex, producing sounds people can barely believe are coming from a humble acoustic guitar.

“Wonderful to watch. Genius” – Stephen Fry

“I love your work and style so much. You are very special” – Jon Anderson (Yes)

“Wonderful playing and singing” – David Crosby (Crosby, Stills and Nash)

“Hands down the most amazing guitarist I have ever seen!” – Tommy Lee (Motley Crue)

Suddenly being catapulted from cult obscurity to mainstream acceptance has been a strange experience for someone so devoted to his craft, and our hero is still an unlikely star remaining very much true to his roots in the acoustic circuit of the North of England.

A truly and fiercely independent artist (and a bloody nice guy to boot!) with his own label and no mainstream industry support, using mostly online social networks for promotion, he has defied the odds with a huge fanbase resulting in headline tours from Australia, Canada and the USA to China and South Africa.

One day all artists will be made like this; ladies and gentlemen Mr Jon Gomm … AWESOME!
