Peter Biedermann is a guitarist who has been composing and performing for over 35 years. While his music covers a number of genres in the electronic and acoustic fields, the music you will hear on the afternoon of Sunday June 12th will be original acoustic instrumental music performed on 6 and 12 string guitars in unique tunings. While acoustic guitar pioneers such as Michael Hedges, Bert Jansch, Leo Kottke and Ralph Towner are considered to be major influences on his music, many other lesser known originators of finger style acoustic guitar are acknowledged and referenced at his live performances.
