Mike Dawes brings his innovative fingerstyle guitar technique to the intimate setting of Myron's Cabaret Jazz, where the 32" round tables and mezzanine balcony offer excellent sightlines for witnessing his remarkable skill up close. The English guitarist has built a reputation for his ability to play multiple parts simultaneously on a single acoustic guitar—melody, bass, percussion, and harmony all woven together in a way that sounds like multiple musicians performing at once.
His repertoire includes both original compositions that have gained millions of views online and creative arrangements of popular songs that showcase his technical prowess and musical imagination. Having toured with Justin Hayward of The Moody Blues and earned recognition from guitar enthusiasts worldwide, Dawes has a way of making the complex seem effortless, using percussive slaps, harmonics, and intricate fingerpicking patterns that transform the acoustic guitar into something far beyond its traditional boundaries. The cabaret's intimate atmosphere and excellent acoustics make it an ideal space to appreciate the nuances of his playing style.
