Who's your favourite Australian guitarist?

[65Firebird]

Just wondering if the rest of the world has heard of some of the great guitar players from Australia.

Cheers.

Skippy?


sorry, only really know Tommy Emmanuel, who's brilliant

 

[fakejake]

I really like James Muller and Peter O'Mara (the latter being a very talented instructor as well). :salude
But since they play jazz, they are probably not well known :hee

 

[duaneflowers]

Tommy Emmanuel or Orianthi

 

[MeHereNow]

Angus and Malcolm :yah

 

[sonar]

Malcolm. My favorite rhythm rock player outside of Townsend.

 

[Ed Driscoll]

Angus and Malcolm :yah

There are other Australian guitarists? :hmm

I keed, I keed. The riff on INXS's "The One Thing" was pretty bitchin'. But that's the extent of my knowledge of Aussie guitarists.

Tommy Emmanuel hands down. Angus is in the conversation too.

Angus and Malcolm :yah

They're Scottish.

 

[Ed Driscoll]

They're Scottish.

It's the 21st century -- they can be continent-fluid if they choose to be. :hee

 

[MeHereNow]

They're Scottish.

Roots in Scotland, grew up Down under, now resides here in the Netherlands.
So in perspective of that thinkin: Eddie van Halen is one of my favourite Dutch guitarist's

James Muller and Cold Chisel's Ian Moss

Yeah, Ian Moss was one of the guys I would put in my top ten.

Ross Hannaford was a cool player, especially with Diana Kiss back in the day. Monday night Espy front bar.....it became a tradition.

I like Doug de Vries' playing when he's "on" too......has a great trio with his wife on vocals.

Keith Urban

Rowland S Howard
