PJAC Special Concert: Muriel Anderson

MURIEL ANDERSON - The first female winner of the National Fingerpicking Guitar Championship, Muriel Anderson has performed with Chet Atkins, Tommy Emmanuel, Earl Klugh, Les Paul, and Doc Watson. Her 2020 release Acoustic Chef is a cookbook with a CD of music for each recipe. She recorded an album with the flamenco duo Tierra Negra, and her double-album, Nightlight Daylight, won eleven national and international awards. She usually plays a nylon string guitar and a Doolin custom 21-string harp guitar which has both nylon and steel strings.

She started “All Star Guitar Night,” which donates its money to the Music for Life Alliance, a charity she founded. Her music can be heard in Woody Allen's film, Vicky Cristina Barcelona, and her album Heartstrings accompanied astronauts on the space shuttle Discovery.
