this is not playing. this is dancing with a guitar.
amazing.
No Ebon coast ?! :(((
Agreed. Sometimes it almost looks like he's aiming a gun or something. It's simultaneously an art and a game of precision.
I just found this guy yesterday. He’s got the finger picking down wow!!!!!!
When I say finger picking, the thumb actually makes it sound that way.
god damn. thank you andy mckee for existing
man this guy is so humble .. "come see me at the table say hello if u have time" id TOTALLY go talk to him
He is TOTALLY like that..
78 thumbs down.....hard to imagine how well THEY play!!! Andy!!! Thank you!!!!!!
Paul Poulin Something neat: Dislikes are actually helpful in a way because they make the video 'controversial' and it widens the range of people who see it.
ClaudiusPlays wrong
alexander reese like or dislike, it contributes popularity to the video. Prove me wrong.
+alexander reese what a great argument lol

I didn't really think he was spitting on them, I thought it was just a joke to be honest
The end of Rylynn always makes me cry, all these years later.
Right? How does someone put so much emotion into musical notes, I'll never understand. If I had 1/1000th of his ability to do that I would never stop writing music
All these years later and it still blows me away, this NOT normal man! Tremendous!
The ending part of Rylynn, I was like watching the night sky full of stars.
I just love Rylynn ...
I can feel Andy's hands are tired already when he's playing the third song Africa...
Thats where the mastery comes out....
Great job Andy....
andy"s playing is a feast for the senses.
yes you are absolutly right. i learned drifting 3 years ago, now i wanted to learn hunters moon, it crushed my brain! there are happening way too many things at the same time... and so fast!
Silly "Smoke on the Water" interlude! Love it!

pretty cool :)
saw Andy in Sydney Australia (the basement) it was magical, Rylynn still gives me goosebumps, the song was born in deep sorrow (the death of a friends little daughter
-i think) now her memory lives on & that sadness is behind Andy (i think)

I love watching him play, he has awesome guitar-face.
Had the pleasure of seeing him play in the Ponte Vedra Concert Hall (Jacksonville, FL).
I'm 17 and I considered myself a pretty decent guitarist until I saw him and I felt like an infant with a guitar in my hands.
Every song he's written/transcribed is a masterpiece and he's such a chill guy.
I got him to autograph a CD and a poster for me. Definitely the best concert I've ever been to.
People keep dissing the percussion pop, but it is a style, and he has incredible flow with it. And also, every musician takes a little of every other sound they have heard to make a new sound. That is the art of music, an unsung collaboration of those that inspired you. Just fu#king enjoy it for what it is, great music by a great guitarist. And YES Totos Africa was epic.
I agree. It is what it is. His musicality is undeniable.
"an unsung collaboration of those that inspired you"
You are owed a medal for this sentence
Haha, thanks. These guys are so good. Check out Calum Graham, young and super talented.
I love watching him perform as much as I love listening to his music. He gets so into his songs and you can tell the passion and attention he puts into every note. How great to have such a love for what you do.
this guy is such an inspiration for me and im sure for many others. his dedication to be the guitarist that he has become is amazing. beautiful.
yes, dedication
I like how confident he looks while playing! :)
I love Rylynn...the ending part is awesome... we love u Andy Mckee
This video is my favorite Live guitar performance!!!
Africa by Toto, what a GREAT suprise! Thanks Andy!
I love how "Common Ground" is the only tune that has a regular drop-d tuning and a conventional arpeggio technique. That title has a reason. :)
Been a fan for over a decade and I never put that together. Thanks fam
🤩🤩🤩 The incredible talent of Andy McKee who by the mastery of his art, sublimates that of the equally talented guitar-maker Michael Greenfield and his one-of-a-kind, handcraft bespoke guitars, including Andy's famous harp-guitar, which can be heard on his track "Into the ocean", it gives this magical moment!✨✨✨
Just amazing, and it comes so natural to him...
Makes it look so easy!!!
it is always pleasant to listen u dear andy and these are awesome.
andy mckee is the best I have seen play with the guitar
it just puts me in such a good mood witnessing over a million views on this video. Sometimes there's truth in this world, not only lemonades and the likes...
I'm convinced that Drifting is one of the best songs ever written. Such a talent and if I wasn't more strong minded I would case my guitar forever. I will never be as good as this guy but the gift of music is so great that we forge ahead, right?!!
Saw him in Belfast 2015,he rocked it.Fantastic player.
In my eyes you're a legend Mr.Mckee.
Im been tryin to learn guitar i know no notes so i been a pickin and a strummin like you But it didnt seem right. .ha then God showed me you ..amazing Andy so love your writing. And would buy a cd to relax to ..after a good cry . I lost my dad recently to Leukemia ..a disease rare called Pure Red Cell Plazia Basicly Leukemia or im told a form of Leukemia .
play it often, if you give it a few years of intimacy you'll develop your own touch and sound quite well. it's about intimacy over time i think if you want sound like his. intimacy = focus for at least an hour straight. once you get comfortable playing guitar and you can play by ear decently i would recommend going out to find yourself a nice guitar that becomes your own and learn to take care of it. i wanna pick up an instrument once i settle down in my own house somewhere
One tear is rolling down my cheek, this is perfection
so private and intensive and yet so "big" and entertaining at the same time. what a genius!
I got to see Andy play with Don Ross at a local folk festival. It was amazing.
I love the enjoyment he gets when he plays. I hope to be where he is at some point. this is someone who clearly loves what he does
yea thats what i love about tommy emmanuel too. so inspiring
i'll have to check him out! thanks for throwing Tommy's name out!
John Imbesi oh my. If you haven't heard of him I just made your life so much better! :D
thank you! :)
il y a des ame tres receptive et perceverante pour transmette ce qu il recoive intérieuremem a travers l univers merci c était un plaisir a entendre
Opens with "Common Grounds". Immediately hit the like button.
How could anyone dislike this man. You play two guitar licks and then bass notes too and if you still feel that way then ok but won't and you can't . Chumps!
Went to see Andy McKee twice recently... just can't stop listening this magic!! :P
how can he possibly make so few mistakes, if any? This guy is as accurate as a fucking machine while playing some super dynamic and intricate stuff, and yet has incredible feel in his music.
I saw him live a few weeks ago, I caught three imperfections. Don't even think I could qualify them as mistakes. Watching him tune his guitar was worth the price of admission
This guy RULES! A good friend of mine recommended him and I say YEEEAAAAH!
Man i didnt want him to stop playing, that last song was so beautiful it had me in tears
Drifting is simply amazing... the execution of it all... so amazing! Andy you wail bro!
I was very happy to see him play.
This is by far the best guitarist I have ever seen play with total mastery of his instrument! Makes me feel all kinds of emotions and dare I say tear up a little because it is so beautiful. I may never be that good at guitar in my lifetime. Only Andy can really play with that unmistakable feel and groove! Amazing!
When he played Africa my life became complete.
This is art. Beautiful.
Beautiful tone... and of course great playing.
The world was and is legitimately not ready for this
Andy Mckee love too see u as an instrument of the living God on this earth, you are the D + TOUCHING Gloria GOD
Andy is incredible!! Amazing player and composer!
He is so soothing... love appreciating his unique style
That strum hand movement is out of this world...
Gift.....talent.....I don't know......but, for my ears, I do know that, this is pure pure perfection........
Yes, Rylynn is one of my favorites too.... Many guitar player could learn and play his songs but Andy McKee plays it right from the heart... Just great!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
This performance channels inner beauty into my soul
thank you for the music
sublime ! un monstre ce mec merci a la vie de nous les faire connaitre tous ces magiciens de la corde :D
Andy is amazing, love his rock style. The guitar has also absolutely amazing sound (also the price is brutal :D )
wauw first time i cried while watching and listening music, THAT TOTO COVER WAS AMAZING !!
Andy, your my favor guitar player ever...
Hunter's Moon!! was freaking amazing in this live version!!
Yes, absolutely marvellous. Never had thought before that one could play the guitar the way Andy does.
This is beautiful music, I could sit here and think for hours :)
Never...EVER....EVER get tired of watching him. So awesome.
3:24 bad ass sound. I love Andy McKee so much.
1 instrument, yet it sound like there is whole orchestra playing. You my friend, are rare, pure talent which one can ONLY be born with. I have been listening to you for days now and i can't get enough. Thank you so much....
lol born with? ask him how much practice he's done and compare that to how much you have. don't blame it on genetics and put his diligence in a trash can
@@whotookjimirocket I totally agree, pure dedication to his craft. No one is born with the skill of being a good guitar player. practice, practice, and then practice some more.
something unbelievable ... a brilliant guitar play!
I was one of the lucky few to enjoy it live...unforgettable!!
30 minutes of dream ...
Combine passion, and talent, you get mastery. Andy has both, I personally love him, a great inspiration for me and my guitar playing.
Truly one of the most outstanding musicians of our time. He shapes our perception on the guitar for generations. Long live Andy McKee
Thanks Andy for the many many many hours of practice youve put in over the years! Its a wonderful thing for me to be able to sit here and watch and listen to your hard work!
his music is so captivating. I felt like i was on drugs just stuck onto this video forgetting what i was going to do initially.
I can't believe 69 people disliked this. There is something seriously wrong with a person if they can't appreciate the pure talent and musicianship this guy possesses.
Fantastic Andy McKee !!!!!
Andy is a unique soul. You know him through the music he plays so beautifully. There are many greats & Andy is one of them. You are blessed Andy & we are blessed to know you.
tes vraiment un bon avec juste la guitard tu arrive a passer de l emotion merci a toi et continue comme ca!!!
A man in the flow of his own light and passion right there!
Antoine, Andy M. and Don Ross are the 3 most profound guitar pioneers of our time and I'm enjoying every moment of it!
muito legal sou BRASILEIRO .gosto de uma boa musica como estas,ainda mais tocando,com esse grande potencial q é.PARABENS .....
Verdade DONIZETE ALMEIDA Souza Realmente o rapaz é ótimo! :)
Thank you Andy McKee for existing [2]
Amazing!....Just Absolutely Amazing......
fantastic version of Every Body Wants to Rule the World; thanks Andy
don't no what's going on in this brain but it's pure genius!!
My mouth hurts from smiling for 31 minutes!!!!
What's remarkable is that if an average person had just 1/100 of his skill or ability level, then they would still be a badass guitar player. His aptitude on the guitar is nothing short of incomprehensible
that's real talent, unreal! this guy should have a billion views. funny how people don't realize what it takes to be that amazing.
Andy your the best love all your song my favorite is into the ocean
...and in acoustic fingerstyle Andy is revolutionary...
Andy is one of the very best out there today and a heck of a nice guy at that.
Drifting. Heard it back on old school UA-cam in 2006. Great tune.
Honestly, I was up late one summer night in 2006-2007 I believe, and as I flipped through a few channels I stopped on Carson Daly's Last Call. He was presenting Andy, whom I'd not seen up until that point. He played Drifting and my mind was as blown as it could have been without mushrooms. I called the lead guitarist of a garage band I was in at the time, he saw it, he came over and we talked about what we had just seen for 3 hours. After UA-cam became a thing I did, I found Andy again and he opened me to Don Ross, Antoine Dufour, Billy McLaughlin, Michael Hedges, and so many more
One of the most creative guitarist i have ever seen! Truly one of a kind.
Nothing is better than Andy...keeps me to heaven!
this guy made my study time much better everyday
Solo steel string playing has really evolved! There have been unusual techniques springing up for years. Now that there are so many people doing it, composition and arranging has caught up with the technical wow factor. Andy is playing at an extremely high level of musicianship. His rhythmic groove is rock solid. He's a great player and arranger, great dynamics, the whole enchilada! I enjoyed the covers, and especially his own poignant tune at 24:22
I will not say Andy McKee is the best guitar player ever because there is no such thing.
His music forever changed my life and the way I looked at true music. I watched this for the first time just now and while listening I found myself lost in the notes. I felt the music in a way I have never felt music before.
He has influenced me to play music that requires no lyrics, the stories are told through the sounds and feelings in a song.
Andy McKee is a visionary, not the best guitar player.
His talent is simply astounding. Nothing short of amazing....
Thank you for posting this, Great video and Andy Tunes !! The quality of tone and picture is great !! Thanks again !!
Sure can hear all the Michael Hedges influences
