Jon Gomm
Superb guitar player coming to a venue near you
Jon Gomm is a virtuoso accoustic guitar player who tours the UK heavily playing his own material alongside the odd Hendrix classic. Jon has an amazing technique combining picking, tapping and knocking to create bass lines and drum sounds. All of the music on his albums comes from one accoustic guitar, there are no overdubs and to see him perform live is quite amazing.
We are blessed with a number of fine guitarists in this country who dedicate their lives to playing to appreciative audiences in pubs and clubs across the British Isles. In a world of electronics, boy bands and ‘talent’ contests these guys deserve far more credit and recognition than they get.
So if you fancy a great night out listening to a very talented guitarist then check out Jon’s tour dates at www.jongomm.com See you in Lincoln, Jon!

just checked out the site and downloaded the video of Wait in Vain - thanks for the tip-off.
Certainly different and a refreshing change to see somebody doing something different on the guitar.
Very impressive !
