Judith Beckedorf will be performing in a line up featuring three of Europe's most talented female guitarists - alongside Sophie Chassée and Karlijn Langendijk - for a superb one-off evening of extraordinary playing at the Queen's Hall.
Judith Beckedorf began playing the guitar when she was 14, performing her first solo concerts early on and furthering her studies in acoustic fingerstyle guitar by moving her home base to Dresden.
While developing her own musical language and expression, she spent some time in Nashville, Tennessee, where American folk music inspired her to take up other instruments, such as banjo and mandolin, and sparked her passion for song writing.
She regularly performs solo concerts and is frequently on tour with her progressive folk/americana trio "Standard Crow Behavior". In Nashville, she founded the concert series "International Guitar Nights" and, together with Karlijn Langendijk from the Netherlands and Vivek Advani from India, she founded "MusiSHEans".
On her 2020 album "Behind The Blue Sea", thoughts and folky melodies intertwine with snappy grooves and graceful ballads. The warm tones of her guitar are like a blanket that gently envelops her soft voice. Fingerstyle and singer/songwriter become one.
Judith will be facilitating a Guitar Clinic on Fingerstyle Guitar on Saturday 22 April, Ards Arts Centre, 12noon. For more information and booking, CLICK HERE
