Rather than using a band for melody, rhythm, bass and drum parts, Tommy plays all that – and more – on one guitar. Guitar legend Chet Atkins was one of the first to inspire young Emmanuel to try this “fingerpicker” style. Decades later, Atkins himself became one of Emmanuel’s biggest fans. Guitar players of all levels come to his shows to witness the magic hands of the “Guitar Wizard of Oz”, but his appeal goes far beyond musicians. Tommy Emmanuel’s message is pure love for the guitar and the music and his delight in sharing it with the world, one audience at a time. Special guest, Frank vignola is widely regarded as a monster player and composer, and has played with everyone from Les Paul and Madonna through to Donald Fagen and the Boston Pops. This will be Frank’s first visit to Australia. “The best (guitar player) I’ve ever seen“ - Eric Clapton “…one of the greatest players on the planet!” - Chet Atkins     Helpful links Add to 2012 Season Subscribtion View the full 2012 Season http://www.adelaidefestivalcentre.com.au/?cat=3355&id=182301 http://www.adelaidefestivalcentre.com.au/?cat=3355&id=182301 25/02/2012 Music And Concerts David Campbell Takes on the '80s with new album and tour - Let's Go! David Campbell releases this summer's party album and announces upcoming national tour. On the back of 4 x Top 10 albums featuring tracks from Broadway through to '60s pop, David Campbell is excited to release his next album and labour of love for 2011 - Let's Go! Featuring David's signature fresh twist on some of the most exciting tracks to come from the early eighties, Let's Go! will be in stores November 18. A national Let's Go tour will kick off in February 2012, with tickets also on sale November 18. Initially inspired by the revolutionary 'second British invasion' of the early '80s, Let's Go is sure to be the biggest summer party album of 2011 and features hits including Let's Go, Shout To The Top, Come on Eileen, I'm Your Man and Tainted Love. On the new album Campbell says "For this album, I wanted to put a fresh spin on some dance-pop classics with a big-band brass and string sound. We went back to basics and jammed some of our favourite tunes from our adolescence, and I couldn't be happier with the result - an album of some of my favourite hits and party anthems - re-imagined in a way I know will keep my audiences on their feet!" David is one of the country's most popular entertainers. Known for his energetic LIVE shows, and selling out tours from coast to coast - expect nothing less from this next Tour. Campbell will perform LIVE with a big band, across the country from February 2012.

Happy Days Records by special arrangement with its president 'Big Al Delvecchio' brings this unique concept to the stage with new stars and memories from the era that reigns supreme in Rock N Roll history. Big Al - world famous drive-in owner of Al's Diner - has cooked up a rock and roll feast large enough to whet any appetite, assembling the greatest band ever to take you back to a decade that created music legends and influenced a formidable culture, performing a catalogue where their songs are timeless, their hits are endless, and their flair is never forgotten. Rock like never before and take the journey back to the Class of 59!!! Rock N Roll's immortal journalist Ritchie Yorke described 2011's Class of 59 tour as "an outstanding and exciting new original show that tells the story of when rock 'n' roll music was a happy and exuberant experience. With a multi-talented cast, the show delivers a stack of red hot tracks in an appropriate context. Rock 'n' Roll comes alive again in this terrific show worthy of an international audience." Dance with us back to an era when rock and roll influenced and created a social movement for the teenagers of its day... an era where black horned rimmed glasses became a trend... an era where petrol was so cheap that it fuelled not only the hot rods on the roads but fired up a musical movement that would only be lived for a short while but would last in the hearts and souls of billions for eternity. It is this era that will be recreated on stage... Fans of the show will be able to take their concert experience home with them with the purchase of the official Class of 59 tour CD featuring a compilation of the hits from the golden era performed on the tour and will be available only on this tour.
