Just stumbled upon this dude tonight and I am completely blown away!

I think I can honestly say that this is the most talented S. O. B. I have ever seen in my life.

For those of you who haven't heard of him... enjoy

For those who have... please share your favorites.

Here are mine...

For starters... here's Jon Gomm just playing his guitar... and drums on his guitar as well...


Now check this out... he sings too...


And finally... my favorite and the most awe inspiring performance I've ever seen...

Wow...that guy is good. Thanks for turning me on. I'd never heard of him. Incredible technique and dexterity.

You're very welcome. I've spent the last couple of hours listening to his stuff and each song is just as mesmerizing as the last.

Oh and for those who may be doubting whether or not he's really making those beats (like I was at first), here's a video of him explaining how he does it...

I've been enjoying him for quite some time. I think the reason you haven't heard much about him is because he doesn't want to become too commercial... Sad really because he is so brilliant. He also uses that beat up guitar which has been broken and repaired quite a few times. He could command practically any guitar company to make him a special sig model, but he's happy with his simple setup.

Very good singer as well I agree, he's done a few morning talk shows here and there but likes to keep to the shadows. I hope I get a chance to see him live one day!

(edit can't help myself, but give this kid a listen too - he's is very similar in style to Jon)

You and me both! I may just have to cross the pond to see him play... look out Europe!

I have seen him live in Leeds at the Brudenell working man's club, his home venue..... He is amazing, my woman coo's over him it's a little bit sickening.

His phrasing and timing is perfect, check out Telepathy. If you get the chance to see him live, he unplugs as part of his set and shows you how there is no trickery at all... I'd give my bollocks to be able to play and sing like him, literally but then I'd be useless to my woman so it's a catch 22.
