Pierre Bensusan rocked the music world at the age of 17, recording his first album (“Pres de Paris”) using his signature DADGAD tuning to completely rekthink accepted approaches to the playing of traditional music on the guitar. He has since gone on to explore not only Celtic roots, but those of other cultures, in particular those of North Africa (he was born in Algeria). His solo shows are invariably a revelation, as he continually pushes the boundaries of his extraordinary technique.
