About

Don Ross

Don Ross is an acclaimed and pioneering figure whose innovations have shaped an entire generation of acoustic guitarists. He is the only two-time US National Finger-Style Guitar Champion and his unique style of playing is celebrated by fans worldwide. Don's music borrows from blues, jazz, folk and classical music creating a style that he describes as "heavy wood". His advanced technique and his sure feeling for rhythm combine with uncommon ideas to make his style instantly recognizable. He often uses percussive techniques and plays intricate down and upstroke patterns with his thumb. These techniques have found their way into the toolboxes of many competitive fingerstyle guitarists. His use of acrylic nails allows him to get the sound of long fingernails without the hassle of broken nails. Don is celebrating the release of his newest album WATER (2023) which includes collaborations with Bruce Cockburn and Michael Manring and is currently available online and through his website.
