Tommy Emmanuel - Living In The Light Tour 2026
Guitar virtuoso Tommy Emmanuel is heading out on the Living In The Light Tour in support of his first solo studio album in over a decade. One of only five people ever named a Certified Guitar Player by the late Chet Atkins, Emmanuel is known for making a single acoustic guitar sound like an entire band -- playing melody, bass, rhythm, and percussion all at once. The 2026 run takes him through intimate theaters and performing arts centers across the country, from Boulder and Portland through a full summer swing hitting Virginia, Indiana, Ohio, Tennessee, and California.
