Podcast 179: Filmmaker Drew Roller of Acoustic Uprising

On this week's podcast, we talk to filmmaker Drew Roller, the mastermind behind the new documentary 'Acoustic Uprising.' Roller tells us how, thanks to YouTube, he discovered the new guard of fingerstyle guitarists such as Andy McKee and Jon Gomm; what it was like to attend Thomas Leeb's Austria Guitar Boot Camp; the enduring influence of Michael Hedges; and much more. He also recommends a handful of contemporary fingerstyle guitarists we all should check out.

This episode is brought to you by Retrofret Vintage Guitars.
