He has shared the stage and recorded with some of the world’s most accomplished musicians including Charlie Haden, Angelique Kidjo, Larry Coryell and many more as well as supporting giants such as Phil Collins, Bobby McFerrin and Van Morrison amongst others. “One of the greatest acoustic guitarists ….“ - The Guardian.
