Word on the street is that he's touring the U.K. and ireland this year, anyone any recommendations on his catalogue? To be honest he's a bit of an unknown quantity to me other than he's a fine player and digs nylon strings.

He's Django's great nephew. Lives in Germany and spends time in Australia. He studied in Spain, has a lot of flamenco in his playing, but does do some swing. He usually plays his own tunes exclusively, but does occasionally bring out a Django tune now and then.

He's very friendly, as we were introduced at a concert and when he found out I played guitar, asked me to sit in for an encore!

Check out "Latin Swing Project" and "Katoomba Birds" for a taste of his group.

He was in Chicago about a year and a half ago, I think, at Fermi Labs. Played nylon strings exclusively, which I really liked. Did all his own tunes, as far as I can remember. Got a chance to talk with him for a few minutes. Really nice guy, and very comfortable in his own skin. At the very least, you'll hear some good music, and will probably pick up some good ideas to boot.

Recently I stumbled upon this video. Incredibly odd couple! It's clear they didn't rehearse much but I find interesting what Peter Finger is doing with his 4 fingerpicks here...
