Check out Gary Clarke Jr and give him a listen! He's playing West Holts 8-9pm

Amazing guitar!!!!

[Wooderson]

[Dub-You]

Gotta be Billy Gibbons, but Gary Clarke Jr would be up there too.

Another thumbs up for Rodney Brannigan from me.  Always leave his shows blown away.  First time I saw him we was escaping the rain into the tent where he came on to play (3 years ago I think).  Everyone was downright miserable in the tent before he came on.  By the end everyone was up dancing and slightly euphoric.

whoever the guitarist in khruangbin (sp?) is has a touch of the hendrix about them I reckon. So them.

As unpopular as this view might be, on leccy guitar I have always been impressed with Matt Bellamys ability. The man can really shred.

I was going to post the same thing. It's trendy to bash both him and Muse, but make no mistake he is a fantastic guitarist.

Wilco's absence this year does stick in the craw.

[TomViolence]

2 pages in and not even a mention! Shame on you all...

Gary Clark Jr maybe?

I don't wanna listen to him as he clashes with beck and pj! Don't wanna make it more complicated!!!

That Joanne Shaw Taylor sounds good, a bit bluesy for me but she can definitely play!!

Billy Gibbons

him with the beard

[Pink_Tequila]

Acoustically you should not ignore Ralph McTell. Forget Streets of London and Kenny The Kangaroo and his ragtime playing is phenomenal.

[kaisherz]

Matt Bellamy. Not even ashamed to say it

 

[Jennings74]

PJ Harvey shes not bad on a 6 string

[Skier68]

Showhawk Duo last year on the bandstand was an unexpected highlight just as Rodrigo Y Gabriela was the year before. Well worth trying to catch again.

[Pear_Cider]

Really looking forward to Joanne Shaw Taylor. She knows her way around the fretboard. Great Blues/Rock voice too...you wouldn't think she came from the Black Country.

It really is about time they got him!

[KryziF]

Show of Hands, Steve Knightly is very good if you like folky stuff.

[Platt073]

JOANNE SHAW TAYLOR, best guitarist I've ever seen

He has been known to pop up on stage with ZZ Top recently to play Rough Boy
