Finnish fingerstyle guitarist Tomi Paldanius plays melodies, chords, bass lines, and even solos on a single guitar. During the concert, you will hear interpretations of well-known pieces performed on acoustic guitar.

Tomi has arranged many hits, such as Bohemian Rhapsody, Hotel California, and Nothing Else Matters. These and other arrangements performed by guitarists around the world have reached tens of millions of views on social media. In 2005, Tomi's first video, Bon Jovi's Livin' On A Prayer, was uploaded to YouTube and became one of the first popular guitar videos on the video-sharing site. Total Guitar magazine mentioned this video as one of the best YouTube videos in its magazine. Many guitarists around the world who were inspired by Tomi's arrangements began to learn from him. One of them is Sungha Jung from Korea, who is currently one of the biggest guitar sensations on YouTube.

Tomi has a degree in classical guitar teaching, but his passion for fingerstyle guitar was inspired by Australian guitar virtuoso and legend Tommy Emmanuel.
