Rodney Branigan – Plays Two Guitars at Once
Rodney Branigan – One Man, Two Guitars
David Galletly over at our facebook page spotted this video of a guy playing two guitars at once. Well yea, we’ve seen a couple of people with double neck guitars playing both necks but, we haven’t seen anyone with two guitars!
David also informed me that he’s gonna be seeing Rodney Branigan at a house concert tonight … That should be a lot of fun watching in person for sure!
Of course, in order to play two guitars at once, you have to expect that some tapping is going to go on with one of them (we don’t have 4 hands so, that’s the only way this could work). And if you notice, it’s Rodney Branigan’s main guitar that is used for the rhythm in this song (12 string).
Yes, very impressive. The only downfall is, most of what we hear here on this particular song is one big C chord.
Ah…. this is not the case with many of his other compositions however. Go to http://www.brokenguitars.com/ and check out some of the songs over there…. Just amazing!
Short Bio:
“The London based singer/songwriter masterfully plays two guitars at once or both guitar and piano simultaneously. However, it is his ability to mix this extraordinary skill with his own heartfelt lyrics and rich, soulful voice that have led to Rodney Branigan becoming one of the most followed global performers of the moment.
“The revelation of the year or even the decade” (Crossroads Magazine, France)
A passion for musical diversity has seen Rodney travel the world with his own, inimitable style of musicianship. Having toured his native America coast-to-coast, Rodney’s desire to share his fusion of organic progressive folk with undertones of rock, flamenco, classical, bluegrass and jazz have also seen him play China as well as France, Germany and Switzerland; earning him love from new fans and respect from established musicians alike.
