Fingerstyle Guitar Champion Christie Lenée: Acoustic Guitar Session
Taking time out from a packed touring schedule, 2017 International Fingerstyle Guitar Champion Christie Lenée braved Bay Area traffic, with her cherished Maton EGB808, and visited the AG offices earlier this week to perform a couple of songs for the staff.
With her Maton tuned to D, A, D, F#, A, D and run through a handful of delay, harmony, and percussion effects—and donning a foot tambourine—Lenée demonstrated her award-winning dynamic hybrid fingerstyle/slapping/overhand tapping technique on the songs “Breath of Spring” and “Song for Michael Pukac,” the latter inspired by a painting by the Los Angeles artist of the same name.
Lenée also discussed the benefits of using different rhythmic patterns and experimenting with alternate tunings when composing on the guitar, as well as other creative approaches to songwriting.

Watching wonder woman entertain the ants, amazing
She is my sister ❤???? from another mother of my lovely guitarist ❤
That was some passionate love played out on that guitar! This woman is just phenomenal.
So so so so talented!!! Amazing artist! Thank you so much for your hard work and dedication!
6yrs ago but thank you
Wonder what she could do with drums she's found a true calling
brilliant playing, excellent musician … but I wouldn't say I like this kind of technical playing with all the bells and whistles.
so i micheal hedges clone lol
It's uncannily very similar to my church organ piece called Songs of Spring. They would go well together…
Is that one guitar sound playing
Ocean from John Buttler !
Music is the celebration of the soul. Sing on my sister of the strings. Fantastic
Anyone in 2024?
Can definitely hear the Billy McLaughlin influence. Amazing!
Lady can play????
Most beautiful song I've ever heard???? this solo needs tobe know whole guitar,world wide.
Omg ????❤❤
I like it, but it's nothing new. Michael Hedges, the GOAT, was doing this almost 40 years ago.
The legacy of Michael Hedges is alive and well! Beautifully played Maestra Christie!
True artist. I love the originality and attention to detail in her songs
Ok, I'm il love ❤
Shades of Billy McLaughlin. Awesome!
Very nice.
I enjoyed listening to you play.
Fabulous technique! You're great artist und guitar player. Anyway I am not sure if I would try to play that technical guitar style, I am just a simple melody man. But you did a great piece of music,
I wanna take a look at your videos from time to time. And – hey – I love women who play guitar!
Absolutely amazing!
wow! wow!
cool girl. a high-quality contrast to the garbage promoted by mainstream.
The middle explanation was great, I've watched a few videos explaining guitar playing/picking but honestly hers made the most sense to me.
Lovely❣️
very ordinary!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
She has studied a ton of Michael Hedges
Well, let's bring @groove the strings on the stage!!❤????
❤ ????????????????????????????????????????????????????
I’m so glad I came across this. Listening to the first one made me smile from ear to ear and second piece brought me to tears. Bravo
Absolutely incredible performance and what a beautiful spirit in her words and muse. Pure Music. ????
What a champ,and beautiful yet!
Titanium fingertips ????
Astonishing!
Just coming here 5 years late to say "Wow! Fantastic!"
Mightily impressive. It's Class Apart. Smooth Romance. This is like a marriage. Guitar gets married!!!
Great!!!!!
