Events: Arizona - Phoenix - Scottsdale

Armed with his humor and wit, his idiosyncratic tunings and charmingly scratchy voice, and a twelve-string guitar technique that has amazed and pleased for nearly forty years, Leo Kottke makes his debut at MIM. When he released his first album on legendary guitar player John Fahey's Tacoma label, there were no photos on the cover. Many listeners assumed it was John Fahey doing a twelve-string album under an assumed name, because that level of technique and musicianship seemed unlikely from an unknown artist. Those questions have long since faded and Kottke himself has become one of the world's revered masters.
