Among guitarists and critics, Mann is considered a modern master. While the blues are his touchstone, he draws inspiration from every direction, blending a myriad of influences with ease and grace. Pioneering guitar legend John Fahey said it well: ‘You can hear classical, jazz and blues approaches somehow converging into a single sparkling sound – a sound completely his own’. Mann’s fresh approach to American acoustic blues and his own compositions means that if you want to experience a guitarist and bluesman at the peak of their art, then look no further.

Woody Mann leads a guitar masterclass on Saturday 8 June at 2pm, teaching practical ways to improve your blues guitar technique.
