Tristan Seume is one of the UK's finest young fingerstyle guitarists. Delighting audiences up and down the UK with his blend of folk, country, Celtic and neo-classical styles, and with his cheerful stage presence, he has been likened to players such as John Renbourn and Gordon Giltrap
His debut CD, Friday Street is available from www.guitarcds.net, by clicking here, and he is currently recording his second album
A respected guitar tutor, he has taught at the Academy of Contemporary Music (ACM), Brighton Institute of Modern Music (BIMM) and each summer at the Bath International Guitar Festival. He is also the UK's demonstrator for Guild Guitars, and is the acoustic guitar techniques columnist for Guitarist Magazine
Tristan is also a sought-after session musician and plays guitar and hammered dulcimer for the baroness of nu-folk, Lisa Knapp in her live band.
If you would like to come and say "hello" through the old-fashioned medium of interpersonal communication, he can fairly reliably be found on a Tuesday night at The Cyder House in Shackleford, Surrey, drinking cider (somewhat unsurprisingly) where his friend Susie Clarke runs the only local open mic session worth being seen at :-)
your music is SO beautiful and soothing to my soul too!! i still keep "Blowing Kisses" on my myspace profile, and i have no plans to change it anytime soon! don't stop doin what you do. and yes i have to also say that you ARE sexy!! love, Chelle
Thanks for accepting Tristan! Hate to sound like hero worship, but yours is the first feature I go to when I get Guitarist! Teaching me that acoustic isn't just E G and D after playing electric for so long! =P

Hope all is well in your world....looking forward to the follow-ip workshop somewhere in the Blackpool area on Sunday 17th August.
I took part in a Martin Simpson workshop in Sheffield, last weekend which was awesome and a great bunch of people.
It would be helpful if you could let me have some outline ideas for your workshop over the next couple of weeks, along the lines that we have discussed.
