Tommy Emmanuel (born May 31, 1955) is an Australian virtuoso guitarist, best known for his fine art of "fingerpicking". He is considered by some as the greatest fingerpicker in the world today. Throughout his career he played with many famous legends like Chet Atkins, Eric Clapton, Sir George Martin and John Denver. Some tracks of note include (but are by no means limited to) "The Journey" (a Top 30 hit in Australia in 1993), "Cross The Nullarbor" (off Determination) and his cover of Mason Williams's "Classical Gas".
Don Ross (born November 19, 1960 in Montreal, Quebec to Scottish and Mi'kmaq parents) is a Canadian fingerstyle guitarist noted for the emotion and intensity of his playing as well as his use of extended technique. Ross' music borrows from rock, jazz, folk and classical music creating a style that he describes as "heavy wood". Ross is the first and only person to twice win the U.S. National Fingerstyle Guitar Championship (1988 and 1996).
