Tommy Emmanuel with Stanley Jordan
JAMinc

Tommy Emmanuel’s a native of New South Wales Australia, grew up in a musical family and reached near rock star status with his big brother Chris in their homeland. But in his thirties, he became captivated by Nashville legend Chet Atkins and decided to go solo acoustic, and the rest is guitar history. Through sheer talent, tenacity and a deep passion for what he does, Tommy Emmanuel has become arguably the most beloved solo guitarist on the planet. He turns 70 this year, but you’d never know it looking at his grueling international touring schedule and witnessing his boundless energy on stage. In this case, the historic Beacon Theater stage just down the road in Hopewell on December 15th, 2024. Tommy brought along a very special guest who he’d met just the night before after two coincident concerts on Charlottesville’s downtown Mall. Jazz guitar legend Stanley Jordan joins Tommy for the 2nd set, as JAMinc Presents…our season 2 finale, with the incomparable Tommy Emmanuel, CGP…here on VPM Music.
