Antoine Dufour - Toi Et Moi

Bryan P — Mon, 10 Mar 2008 11:29:33 +0000

I love guitar solos. As a child, my father exposed me to various types of music. One genre that I listen to is rock, even though I am eclectic. There was a point in time where I did not really enjoy this music, but I've learned to appreciate guitar solos, electric or acoustic.

This appreciation grew as I listened to works from amazing guitarists ranging from the blue-sy type note playing by David Gilmour, to the hard rock of Jimmy Page (and personally, these two are my personal most favorite guitarists of all time).

Trying to experience other types of guitar solos, I ran across this guitarist while searching videos in YouTube - apparently you're bound to stumble into something interesting when you look around this site.

This particular song is very sweet. He isn't using standard guitar tuning.

Here is the tuning according to the description on his YT: F#ADGBE with a partial capo at the 2nd fret on string 1,2,3,4.

I probably will try to learn how to play this on my guitar. I love the texture of his music. This one is just the best to me because I like the way his emotion is portrayed in this work. I also like the way that it's dedicated to his wife.

There's not too much I can say about this dude other than to check out his work.

A Drink with Andy McKee

Andy McKee swung by Carnegie Mellon with fellow Candyrat artists Craig D'Andrea and Antoine Dufour. Got to listen to youtube hits like Rylynn, Drifting, For My Father, Tight Trite Night, Africa, which were all breathtaking to hear live. An encore and a standing ovation later, I stuck around to get signatures, and waited till the end with Natasha. We actually had a really pleasant conversation with all three of them. Andy is a typical nice guy, humble, helpful, unpretentious, genuine, low-key, nerdy? (likes dungeons and dragons), loyal, down-to-earth. Antoine is a funny (although sometimes unintentionally), who speaks English as a second language, and may come off as clueless and misunderstood. Craig is 23, and a chilled-out recent college-grad, sorta balances the trio by getting them out to bars at night, with Andy being engaged, and Antoine being married with one kid

Anyway, got to talk with them for a while after the show, and when we got to their car, they asked us if we were going out later, and invited us to have a drink with them. Without a doubt, we agreed, picked them up at Hampton Inn half an hour later and went to Doc's House at shadyside. We got to talk about a wide range of things, influences, inspirations, aspirations, experiences, and it is great to sit down with the three of them and really talk to them in a non-concert dynamic. They are just three normal people road-tripping around the northeast trying to make a buck doing what they love. Got to learn about their mutual respect for Don Ross, the big daddy of fingerstyle picking as they have led me to think, who have influenced and recruited all three of them to the label.

Just another Saturday night with three of the best fingerstyle guitarists in the world road-trippin in a cream-blue minivan.
