South African guitar legend Derek Gripper has been described as a "once-in-a-lifetime musician" - rewriting the narrative of classical guitar by infusing it with the sounds of the West African kora, and in the process creating 21-string magic on a 6-string instrument.
A groundbreaking musical iconoclast known for founding genre-defying ensembles, Gripper has collaborated with musical heavyweights including Ballake Sissoko, Toumani Diabaté, American cellist Mike Block, and Australian classical guitar god John Williams.
Having graced world stages from Cape Town to Vancouver and played storied venues from Glasgow's Royal Concert Hall to the Kennedy Center to Carnegie Hall, Gripper's one-night appearance for an intimate show in Paonia in between Denver and Miami dates is one not to be missed.
