About
Multi-award winning acoustic guitarist, Will McNicol, is returning to the B-Bar again in 2018 following the release of his new album.
Having worked relentlessly on various collaborative projects and touring new countries for the past few years, Will has just completed recording his first solo album in five years. Produced by one of the world’s most highly-respected acoustic guitarists - Clive Carroll, the album has already received acclaim from a special pre-release concert at the prestigious Ullapool Guitar Festival in October.
In the time since his last solo release Will has performed, given workshops and masterclasses in England, Ireland, Scotland, France, Italy, and most recently a substantial tour of China - a country he will be revisiting in 2018 to promote this new release.
Having picked up his first guitar at the age of six, Will has gone on to become Guitarist Magazine's UK Acoustic Guitarist of the Year (2011) and one of Acoustic Guitar Magazine's 30 Great Guitarists Under 30 from around the world (2014). He holds Associate, Licentiate and Fellowship diplomas with Trinity College London in Classical Guitar Recital and has released four critically acclaimed albums of original material.
Will has performed relentlessly throughout his career and has given concerts up and down the UK and abroad. Whether it be headlining his own solo shows, performing at festivals, or supporting world-renowned artists such as Pierre Bensusan, Clive Carroll, Jon Gomm, Martin Simpson and Mumford and Sons amongst others, his performances have been described as "beautifully flawless" and "magical" by the music press. Having toured, performed, workshopped and given masterclasses in the UK, Ireland, France, Italy, Zimbabwe and China, Will has also made appearances including multiple concerts and workshops at one of Africa's biggest music festivals - The Harare International Festival of Arts.
