ELIAS BARTHOLOMEO
Thursday 6th February 8pm $25
Elias, a virtuoso fiingerstyle guitarist, musician hailing from Sydney, Australia, embarked on his musical journey at the tender age of 4 under the guidance of his grandfather. Immersed in the sounds of Jerry Reed, The Shadows, Chet Atkins & Tommy Emmanuel, Elias was inspired to emulate their mastery. Despite being self-taught and unable to read music, he honed his craft through ear training and collaboration with fellow musicians.
At 16 years old, Elias had the opportunity live out his dream and perform alongside Tommy Emmanuel in the Maui Cultural Arts Centre, Hawaii - an experience that further fueled his passion for music. Over the years, he has had the privilege of collaborating with numerous musicians from across the globe, enriching his musical repertoire.
