One of the world’s foremost fingerstyle guitarists and harp-guitarists, and the first woman to win the National Fingerstyle Guitar Championship, Muriel Anderson continues to thrill audiences with her unique and joyous style.

Guitarist, Harp-Guitarist and composer Muriel Anderson, embraces music from all over the world with a sense of grace, joy, and gentle humor. If you’re not already familiar with Muriel, you will find yourself smiling when you feel the joy of her music shining through a stunning array of styles.

Muriel is the first woman to have won the National Fingerstyle Guitar Championship. Her double CD, Nightlight Daylight, was chosen as one of the top 10 CDs of the decade by Guitar Player Magazine and placed first in its category in 11 national awards and her “Heartstrings” recording accompanied the astronauts on the space shuttle. Among those she has performed/recorded with are Chet Atkins, Les Paul, Victor Wooten, Tommy Emmanuel and the Nashville Chamber Orchestra. Muriel was also named one of the top 50 acoustic guitarists of all time by Guitar Player Magazine and recently named the top 10 female guitarists of all time.

Muriel’s multimedia show brings you on a planetary tour of tastes, images, and music with a backdrop of stunning visuals by photo-artist Bryan Allen. She is celebrating the release of Sailing Dreams, her innovative CD & board game, on the heels of her Acoustic Chef book/CD.

Muriel is host of the renowned Muriel Anderson’s ALL STAR GUITAR NIGHT® and founder of the MUSIC FOR LIFE ALLIANCE charity.
