David Brandon has appeared in concert throughout North America, Europe, and Asia. The Los Angeles Times has called him "an outstanding technician whose precise control of details is stunning to experience." He toured extensively with America's preeminent classical guitarist Christopher Parkening for 15 years, culminating in the EMI recording Virtuoso Duets. Guitar Player Magazine wrote, "The music sparkles with virtuosity, precision, and musicality." David also appears with Julie Andrews on her Hallmark Christmas album and has been featured in concert with Nashville guitarist Chet Atkins and jazz artist Dave Brubeck. The Washington Post described his music as "flawless" and "dazzling," and he was hailed as "technically brilliant" by the St. Louis Dispatch and "excellent" by the Boston Globe.
A student of the legendary Andrés Segovia, David has operated Brandon Guitar Studio in Lubbock, Texas since 1980. He is on the faculty at Texas Tech University as head of the guitar department and has given master classes and lectures at many colleges across the nation. David lives in Lubbock with his wife and two sons. His latest recording, Legacy, is a collection of 17 of his original compositions.
