🇫🇷 I’m just back from a most sublime week in France for my annual residential workshop 🇫🇷 An absolute joy for so many reasons, not least the wonderful bunch of musicians whose enthusiasm was infectious, culminating in a brilliant end-of-workshop concert. Our hostess, Brenda, with assistance from Martine who treated us to the best food and drink around, and a venue that makes every guitar sound like the best version of itself. All in all - utterly marvellous, and I’m very grateful.
My next workshop is this Sunday at Sandy Hill Arts (Corfe Castle) before my concert. More info and tickets here: /events/will-mcnicol-guitar-workshop/

Some Innotet loveliness for you. Just completed this commission, which started life as audio recordings from the client of his acoustic guitar ideas. He passed those on for me to help shape into a full solo piece.
Then came the Innotet magic courtesy of @inneswatson and we ended up with this rather lovely collaboration! Full version up on YT. Hope you enjoy!
Big up @seonaid_music Marsailidh Groat, and @alice_in_cello_land

Just released a new video of a piece of mine called Old Harry. It features a technique I’ve loved for this years - I like calling it “the ol’ pick n drag” but I’m sure there’s probably a fancy proper name for it knocking about…Here’s a clip of it in action - p i m a followed by a dragging back across the strings. Anyway, I hope you enjoy!

Here’s the finale of my piece, ‘The Cartographer’ - it’s a blast to play, especially when you throw everything and the kitchen sink at it! Hope you enjoy having a little listen.

Hope you’ve been having a lovely Easter, folks. Here’s a splash of a tune of mine called Old Harry. Named after the stunning chalk formations at Handfast Point, not far from where I live on the South Coast. Worth a google if you want to see some beautiful images! Anyway, hope you enjoy this little snip - full video coming soon =)
