February 18th, 2012 - Los Angeles, California
An intimate event featuring Tommy Emmanuel, Richie Sambora, and Laurence Juber. Benefiting the Women and Cancer Fund, tickets are $1000 and limited to 50 attendees.
For more information, please email manager@tommyemmanuel.com
After each show during his September 2011 US tour, Tommy collected his used guitar strings and donated them to Wear Your Music‘s Guitar String Bracelet Charity project.
Wear Your Music uses recycled fine silver and the used guitar strings, handcrafting them into bracelets to be sold on their website. A portion of the sales are donated to a charity of the artist’s choice.
100% of the net profits from Tommy’s sales go to UNICEF
What a great way to support UNICEF and wear some of the coolest guitar-related jewelry around!
**If and when you find yourself to be one of the lucky owners of a Tommy guitar-string bracelet, send us a photo of you wearing it… we’ll get your photo on the facebook page!**
Thanks for the support!
Tommy paid a visit to the studio with singer and Australian Idol winner Damien Leith, recording a beautiful rendition of a holiday classic

Tommy arranges a few fan requests
Rather than go the usual serious route with song arrangements, Tommy decided to keep it fun and involve some fans. He asked people on reddit.com a few months back to suggest and vote for songs they would like to hear. The response was amazing! Thanks to everyone who participated!
Check out Tommy’s take on these selections! (click on the title for video):
Satisfied Mind, Jeff Buckley (written by Joe “Red” Hayes + Jack Rhodes)
Brubeck Medley, Dave Brubeck (Blue Rondo A La Turk. Take Five, and Birth of the Blues)
